Sabai Grass Weaving
Sabai grass is a natural fibre abundantly grown in tribal-dominated areas of Orissa and parts of West Bengal.The usage of the grass, locally known bobei ghasa, was earlier confined mainly to rope-making. But over a period of time, the craft has seen an evolution into the production of a very wide range of environment-friendly, elegant and sophisticated utility products for home and other uses. Women workers, mostly belonging to tribal communities are extensively engaged in the production of these items.
