Lik Lik Steps Bilum Crossbody

Bag Number BIL6206

  • The Steps pattern is inspired by a woman's daily journey up the mountain steps. Everyday she comes down the steps to collect water and the things that she needs to sustain her family. She carries them back up to her house on the mountain side, sometimes walking alone and sometimes with friends. They share stories and laugh, bringing joy to a task that would otherwise be hard.
  • This Bilum is handwoven from acrylic and wool yarn as well as up-cycled knitwear using traditional weaving techniques.

11cm W x 15cm L x 116cm Strap length
