The fascinating thing is that the intricate designs are NOT painted on! Each design is made up as a cane. A cane is made when you arrange shaped tubes of polymer clay into a log so that a design continues for the entire length of the log. It’s a bit like blackrock candy, or really complicated sushi. When you cut a slice from a well made cane, the design on the slice will always look the same. The cane can be made smaller (reduced) by squeezing it. If this is done slowly and carefully, even a design that is quite large (many centimetres across) can be reduced to a very small design. The women of Samunnat make their intricate designs reasonably large and then reduce them before cutting the cane into slices to decorate their beads.
