About the Item

This Dayak Tribal Baby Carrier from Kalimantan, Borneo, is a stunning example of traditional indigenous craftsmanship. Made from a combination of beads, rattan, and wood, this carrier is not only a practical tool for carrying infants but also a work of art. The carrier's frame is constructed from sturdy rattan, providing a stable base for the baby to rest in. Intricately carved wooden supports add strength and durability to the structure. The entire carrier is adorned with colorful beads, meticulously arranged in intricate patterns that are unique to Dayak tribal art. The use of beads in the carrier's design is not only decorative but also carries cultural significance. In Dayak culture, beads are often used to symbolize status, wealth, and spiritual beliefs, making this carrier a meaningful and culturally rich artifact. Despite its functional purpose, this Dayak Tribal Baby Carrier is a beautiful piece of art that showcases the skilled craftsmanship and artistic expression of the Dayak people of Kalimantan, Borneo.
