Sunrise Banig Mat
A beautiful handwoven banig mat from Bukidnon, Philippines, made of natural sodsod grass. Its warm, sunrise-inspired pattern adds a minimalist, cultural touch to any home or space as a decor or textile accent. Size: Round, approximately 4' diameter. Make: Plant-dyed and natural colored woven grass. Proudly handwoven by the TWWA, which actively preserves its traditional Bukidnon-Tagolanen cultures. Care: Keep dry. To remove folds from the banig, gently flex it in the opposite direction of the folds, or use weights like heavy books for 1-3 days to flatten it. To clean your banig, gently shake out any dirt and dust. One may use a handheld vacuum with a brush attachment. Do not use a strong vacuum like a floor or robot vacuum since this may damage the handwoven material over time. Each handwoven banig is individual and distinct; no two are identical.
