Walert the Possum feeds at night and sleeps during the day. We use possum skins to make Gugra, or possum skin cloaks, which we wear to keep warm. These cloaks are decorated with our designs and are worn during traditional ceremony.
All our wangim are made from timber collected from tree roots or branches
that have a natural bend.
All designs are based on traditional symbols from South East Australia
