A traditional Papuan bag called "bilum," made from braided plant fibers and rooster feathers in this particular example.

This particular piece, typically reserved for display during traditional ceremonies such as weddings, is entirely decorated with feathers. Displayed and sold with a custom-made stand that gives the illusion of it floating in the air. Approx. 58 x 42 cm / €360, including stand and shipping.
