1013 Yellow Stripe Woven Mat Collection
Specimen Print from the Woven Mat Collection of Violet A. Noriega
By: Violeta A. Noriega

The banig woven designs are featured as an interesting folk art in the BANIG ART series. The designs are intertwined weavings of buri leaves, natural material indigenous to the Philippines, colored with vegetable dyes or natural dyes found in nature. The woven mat, a utilitarian household item generally used to sleep on or as a base for drying agricultural crops, is an important part of family life and culture in the Philippines.
