Описание к видео 7 Ayam Mamatik, Plaiting decorated rattan mats

A sleeping mat measures ca. 90 x 150 cm, a mat for the living room 3 to 5 meters in length. A beautiful mat is made by or for a daughter for her marriage and after her death it may accompany a woman to her grave.
In a community hall a mat can measure 10 meters or more. There are many patterns, some are old traditional Agabag or Murut patterns (see the film Sinumandak & Agigimpong), some come from other areas and the plaiters have taken them into their repertoire.
In the first part of the film the plaiters start a mat from the middle in the traditional way.
In the second part Ibu Hangin Bang introduces a new method starting a mat from the border.
