Description

I am a law man and come from a long line of song men.  The saltwater design (broad stripes) comes from the reflection of the sun on the waves in the early morning and early evening when we fish. The design is used on neck ornaments and is mostly worn in ceremony.  Men wear small hand-woven bags around the neck with similar designs where we can store fishing hooks, bait, tucker, a knife, our tobacco, puri-puri (black magic) – anything!
