Bilum PNG Natural Fibre Bag Traditional Hand Woven Carryall Baby Bag

Telefomin Bilum - Baby Carrier Bag - Natural

Step into the rich culture of Papua New Guinea with our Bilum Artisan-Made in PNG.

This beautifully handcrafted piece is not just a bag but a testament to the skill and tradition of the tribal communities in which it originates—meticulously crafted using fibrous tissues sourced from the Pandanus Palm and Tulip Trees and Reed Grasses.

These materials have been used for generations to make Bilums. The beaten fibres are then twisted and rolled, working them into a string.

It is often dyed by hand, creating earthy colours that make each piece unique and visually stunning.

Our Bilum is not only aesthetically pleasing but also incredibly durable.

The intricate weaving process ensures a product that can withstand the test of time.

The size of each bag varies, as they are handcrafted, but generally, they are spacious enough to carry your everyday essentials.

They are perfect for a day out shopping, a beach trip, or a cultural festival.

Plus, they are easy to care for - simply hand wash gently in cold water and dry in the shade to preserve the colour and integrity of the fibres.

When you purchase our Bilum Artisan Made in PNG, you are not just buying a bag, but a piece of culture, a story of a people and their craft.

This is an excellent opportunity to own a unique, handcrafted piece representing the artisan's stories.

The time, effort, and skill that goes into creating each Bilum make it a one-of-a-kind piece you can proudly show off, knowing that you support traditional artisans and their communities.

Treat yourself or gift this beautiful piece to someone special, and let the spirit of Papua New Guinea add a touch of richness to your life.
