Sarawak Crafts describes the material culture of those Borneo people found in significant numbers within the East Malaysian State of Sarawak.'ln this slim but comprehensive volume, the author introduces us to the major crafts of the region--carving, metal work, plaiting and basketry, beadwork, and weaving--which not only incorporate many of the beliefs of the people and reflect their way of life, but use the simplest of materials from the tropical rain forest which still covers much of the State. Although methods, materials, and motifs are changing to suit market demands and the availability of raw materials, the skill and artistic sensitivity of the indigenous people of Sarawak remain reflected in those crafts which are still being made today. xiv, 92 pp., 22 colour and 40 b&w plates, bibliography.
