Comment: |
Striking on these containers are the detailed patterns, carved in the bamboo. These ornaments are typical of the Minangkabau-people in the Padang-area (West-Sumatra). This particular pattern is described by F A Wagner in her book "Sierkunst in Indonesie" on page 87.
These containers were probably used to hold sirih.
