Product Description
Heidi Munan – the honorary curator of beads at the Sarawak Museum – displays the beauty, variety and mystique of the beads and bead culture found in the worlds third-largest island. Coverage of this culturally significant subject transcends the island’s political boundaries to include the Malaysian states of Sabah and Sarawak, Brunei and Kalimantan in Indonesia.
Drawing on the authors extensive fieldwork, Beads of Borneo explores the island and people of Borneo, the history of the bead trade and the island’s indigenous bead cultures, beads as jewellery, their religious qualities and modern trends in bead design.
