Among the Kenyah and other Dayak peoples of Borneo, ear ornaments of cast solid brass were signs of prestige and power. Many such ornaments served both as ear pendants and as weights, designed to help stretch the earlobes to exaggerated lengths. These would have stretched the ear lobes to a remarkable length. Thereafter, great care was needed to prevent the ear lobe from breaking.

Women tended to stretch their ear lobes much more than men, it was considered effeminate for a Dayak man to have lobes that stretched beyond the shoulders.

Collecting Tribal Art Is My Passion, Food For The Soul, I Have Been Collecting Tribal Art And Antiques For Well Over 25 Years, My Collecting Trips Have Taken Me To Many Distant Countries, The Artifacts Of Interest Are Authentic Tribal And Ethnographic Implements Used In Divination And Healing.

 My  Travels Have Taken Me To Out Of The Way Places Where There Are No Cars Or Hotels, Some Of The Remote Places Are Only Reachable By Foot , So I Often Take Long Treks Into The Bush  To Find Some Of These Rare Pieces , But Mostly Its A Question Of Being In The Right Place At The Right Time , My Collection Consists Of  Ethnographic Material From Animist Tribal Peoples Of Africa Asia And South East Asia
