“LINGLING-O”- PENDANTS (either made
of bronze or silver)
Lingling-o is
an ifugao accessory that is usually worn as a pendant in a necklace that it has
been considered a valuable ornament and is often used as wedding gifts. It is
made usually from three local materials: those are wood, silver, and copper
depicting the status of the accessory user. The shape is designed in a circular
form with a range of size from a five cent diameter up to 5 peso coin radius
with an obvious difference on its appearance. Each appearance have a different
meaning. The upper two forms are intended for men (especially the warriors)
having slight variations and the lower two objects are especially made for the
ladies that serves as fertility charm. The lingling-o design for women mimics
that of the design of the female clitoris or the female hip bone while the
men’s accessory copies the muscular curvature at the back of an athletic male
body. The common thing that the lingling-o for men and women has is the hole at
its center resembling the outline of an embryo with umbilical cord. the details
of the design depends entirely on the craftsman’s interpretation of the user
and transforming them in the form of art.
According to
local beliefs, using the lingling-o provides you supernatural powers for men,
improves the owner’s fertility in the case of women, and lastly, it brings luck
to the user. The old folks of ifugao believe that anitos and their ancestors
reside in them.
