Aboriginal Coolamon

Aboriginal Coolamon

$45.00

These are crafted by Clem Christian an Aboriginal elder residing in Wiradjuri country Narrandera Riverina district NSW.

A Coolamon is an Indigenous Australian carrying vessel. It is a multi-purpose shallow vessel, or dish with curved sides. Coolamons were traditionally used by Aboriginal women to carry water, fruits, nuts, as well as to cradle babies as depicted in this Coolamon. Today when women gather bush tucker, they usually use a billy can, bucket or flour tin. Coolamons were carried on the head when travelling any distance, or under the arm if used as a cradle. If carried on the head, a ring pad was placed on the head, made out of possum and/or human hair string, twisted grass, or feathers. This helped to cushion and support the carriage of the Coolamon. They were also used in ceremonies, such as for aromatic smoking, which was believed to have purifying effects. They were rubbed regularly with fat, such as emu fat to keep the wood in good condition.
They range from approximately 24-29cm L 6-9cm W 3-5 cm H

Cloth Message Stick

Cloth Message Stick

$37.00

In collaboration between Sherren Gross, indigenous artist and Artisans Effort, Kolkata the message or talking stick has been created.

The embroidered design/emblems on the textile padded ngariba-dinir represents ( as explained with the accompanying information card) important aspects of Sherren’s tribal family from North

Stradbroke Island ( off the coast of Southern Queensland). Ngaribar means message and dinir means wood or stick.

“On this message stick the symbols represent, creek, waterhole, people sitting down, Tea Tree, Tribal Totems, Snake, Pearl Shell and Dolphin. We follow the creek up to the water hole which is a brown lake coloured from the tee tree leaves. We gather here. We are salt water people from Quandamooka”

Traditionally messages , stories and coming events were sent by carvings made on solid rounded wood as communication between clans.

Just as the message stick played an important part in communication and protection between aboriginal groups, today in the classroom the message stick can be a valued item. The person holding the message stick has the right to speak, to be respected and not be interrupted.

Length is approx. 30 cms and width approx. 9cms

Presented in a carry textile bag.
