Art form made by carving an emu egg
Kalti paarti carving (also known as emu egg carving) is an art form made by carving a kalthi-parti, or emu egg. The practice began in the mid to late nineteenth century and while it has been practiced by people in Australia from many backgrounds, it is often strongly associated with Aboriginal art.
