Sarawakian Local Delight : Leaves for Table



What a lovely idea using lovely leaves to line a table.

This family of Kayans are enjoying a picnic near a secondary jungle in Sarawak. Look at the lovely tiles used for their table.

But my friends are using leaves as their natural table cloth.

These leaves are called Daun Buan in Iban and Daun Simpor in Bahasa Malaysia.

Sarawakians use a lot of leaves for many purposes and the leaves are also from many different kinds of trees.
