Sarawakiana Talk Series 05/2010: Anyaman Tikar Bergerang dan Anyaman Tikar Masyarakat Sarawak
29 Jul 2010
2:30 pm - 4:30 pm
The abundant weaving materials available in Sarawak means that they
can be utilised to produce useful items like baskets, bags, mats and other
lifestyle products. While Sarawak is famed for her baskets, the Kraftangan
Sarawak have taken a keen interest in the making of the Malay mats locally known
as tikar bergerang (double plaiting mat). The tikar bergerang has a unique‘usage expression’ and has its own ‘iconographical value’ for the Malaycommunity.Unique, isn't it?
