Botswana Beer Strainer

This colorful woven net is used by the Baye, Hmambukushu and related people in Ngamiland, Botswana for straining the potent fermented sorghum beer. The finished beer is  strained through these nets and great parties occur in the villages when the beer is ready to drink. The net is woven and dyed using the same fibers and natural plant dyes as used in Botswana's famous baskets.

It measures approximately 18" tall and 8.5" wide
