Cultural artifacts are an important component of the culture of the Iban community in Sarawak. Its nature of functioning as an object used for social, political, and economic purposes has made this cultural object a heritage and culture for the indigenous ethnicity. in addition, Iban cultural artifacts are symbolic in showing the status of their owners and reflecting the skills of the individuals who produce them. This study is a descriptive qualitative study that uses an exploratory research approach. The focus of the research is to look at and evaluate the inspirations of nature shaping and influencing the idea of the creation of its cultural artifacts. The results of the research found that Iban artifacts are predominantly heavily influenced by the elements of nature in their manufacturing materials, the aesthetic value of art on the artifacts, and the belief in the artifacts. The importance of this research is as an effort to create a perspective of knowledge in the field of indigenous cultural materials in Sarawak, namely the Iban community.
