This beautiful rug measures 2 metres in diameter, made from an 8mm nylon loop pile with non-slip thermoplastic rubber backing. Not only is the Travelling Quandong rug practical, it also promotes cultural awareness for children to further their learning about Indigenous Australia. These stunning rugs honour indigenous owned businesses, local artistic talent and the continued respect for our Traditional Land Owners.

 The Story Behind the Design

‘The art depicts the migration of birds as the centre piece where they would consume a variety of fruits, one being the Quandong fruit which is represented by the blue and green spheres. The T shape designs represents the birds, which are seen travelling between the centre piece, dropping the seeds to the rainforest floor and moving the various locations to drop the digested seeds. The Quandong fruit is special to the Djabugay Bama (peoples), as these seeds are used as traditional attire.’
