bek + MERI STRING BAG | NFB012
bek + MERI bilum from Papua New Guinea are deeply woven string bags handcrafted from woven yarn, a knotless netting or looping. Made primarily by women, from sourcing and collecting plants, neating, drying and weaving, a single bilum can take 4-8 hours. Each bilum is named after the artisan herself.
NFB012 measures 45cm x 36cm (approx.) and is made from bush rope which is extremely strong, durable and expansive.
When buying a bilum via Mary & Me and bek+ Meri, you’re buying something unique, preserving a tradition, supporting weeks of labour and supporting livelihoods Xx
