Crafted from leather with embellishments of animal tusks and teeth, the Abor belt represents not only the fierce cultural entity of the tribe but also their serious relationship with nature. This canon symbolisa valor, hunting prowess, and ancestral heritage.
The unique feature of this belt is how the tusks and teeth, set in little pieces of bone, are securely sewn with a plaiting cane strap. The combination of leather, bone, and cane represents the wisdom of the tribe in utilizing natural materials for working properties and as symbols of adornment. Traditionally worn by warriors and hunters, the belt is said to symbolize strength; thus, modelled gifts passed down through generations. It contains the tribal spirit of survival and skill and respect for the wildlife they coexist with. A true marriage of rawness and artistry, it is juxtaposed by animal components and handwoven cane, a balance of rugged functionality and aesthetic pride.
