The indigenous people of Borneo have used beads since time immemorial and "Beads of Borneo" reveals their culture to a wider world. Author is the Honorary Curator of Beads at the Sarawak Museum. "Beads of Borneo" traces the history of the bead trade, the use of beads as jewellery and in costume, their religious and social significance, and the modern trends in bead use and design on the world's third largest island. Heidi Munan reveals the beauty, variety and mystique of the beads and bead culture, transcending political boundaries to cover the Malaysian states of Sabah and Sarawak, Brunei and Kalimantan in Indonesia.

Summary: Best Book on Borneo Beads
Comment: I picked up this book in Borneo and was amazed by its beauty, amount of information, and its incredibly low price for a book of this quality. I have been collecting beadwork from Borneo during 7 trips over the past 20 years and found this book very useful in evaluating and understanding my collection. Heidi Munan is the authority on Borneo beads having the credentials of living in Sarawak for 40 years and traveling throughout Borneo to visit with tribal people to view their beads and how they use them as daily ornamentals, family heirlooms, and for ceremonial events. She also describes where they came from, the significance of individual beads, and how they may be used in various crafts and appareil. She has also written several other books about Borneo and is the Honary Curator of Beads at the Sarawak Museum. If you are interested in Borneo, tribal art, or beads in general you must have this book.
