What’s New

Directions: Identify the materials used in making these accessories and crafts? Write your answer on the box. Accomplish this in your activity notebook.

1. Flower vase	[illustration: flower vase]
2. Bracelet	[illustration: bracelet]
3. Anklet	[illustration: anklet]
4. Necklace	[illustration: necklace with pendant]
5. Henna tattoo	[illustration: henna tattoo design; printed label “henna”]

1. From what materials do you think these crafts are made up of?
2. What clues gave you an idea about the materials that might have been used in making each craft?
3. In what occasions or places can those crafts be mostly observed?

The previous activity guided you to look closely in the designs for you to figure out the materials used. In the next parts of the module, try to discover how these materials have something to do with the culture of the place and how it can be localized to modify its distinct characteristics.

What is It

Look around or imagine the places that you have been into. Can you see crafts or potteries displayed? What are the materials used? Considering the tribes and groups of people in the highlands and lowlands of Luzon, one can say how rich their culture is. There are a lot of art forms present in the said place. To name some, one of the arts and crafts of the Ilocanos is the burnay pottery. It is the unglazed earthen jar with small opening. The potters mix fine gravel, sand, and ashes and fire the clay to make the burnay heavy and sturdy. Simple designs like curve patterns can be applied around the shoulders of the jar. Pricking the jar with a stick while it is still soft is another style to make the surface more interesting.1

[illustration: burnay jars] Burnay

Another art of Kalinga is tattooing. It is considered as clothing and decoration because it covers their chest and arms. Wang- Od is the last “mambabatok” or traditional tattoo artist. She uses charcoal and water that is tapped into the skin through a thorn end.2 The first step is craping the charcoal (uling) from the rice pot while it cooks over the fire. Second, the charcoal or uling collected from the pot is combined with local fresh water to form the paste called merteka. The merteka is fine-tuned by kneading with Wang Od’s fingertips. Using dry straw, she lays out the pattern for the design. She bends the full length of the stalk and dip them into the hand- made pigment, creating a stencil of the tattoo. Thorns from pomelo tree serve as the needle. She tests their sharpness on her own ankle to begin. This painful tattoo technique is said to be a thousand years old.

Ling-ling-o or dinumug is the amulet of the Ifugaos. This is made from jade, gold, copper, bronze, stone, and other materials. The kind of material used for personal ornaments suggests differences in social standing. The ling- ling-o made from gold or brass pendants and earrings still survives among the Ifugao and the Igorot in Northern Philippines. Nowadays, many examples are made of shells and gold\ which are worn around the Ifugao’s neck and serve as fertility symbols for Ifugao tribes.

Jewelry industry is prominent in Meycauayan, Bulacan. Craftsmen fashion trinkets from precious metal such as gold and silver, and precious and semi-precious stones, pearls and diamonds. A jeweler makes and repairs jewelry such as bonds, cuts, and shapes and at the same time, he or she is the one who sells his/her work. Some designs such as those found in antique jewelries are completely hand crafted because these cannot be done by machines.2
