The traditional craft of weaving home decoration items or furniture out of Sabai grass is popular among rural Bankura, Purulia and West Midnapore in West Bengal. Women of the lower-income families from this region use the durable natural fibre for weaving a variety of sophisticated artifacts for economic sustenance. • Traditionally, the local communities used Sabai grass to make ropes. The craft has evolved to appeal to global markets and, the craftsmen started dying the fibre with vegetable and natural dyes. However, these days, food safe artifical olours are also used in some cases.The Sabai grass is harvested, reaped, sun-dried, twisted into ropes and turned into braids. These are then dyed if needed and processed into the final products. • A perfect, handcrafed eco-friendly multi-utility gifting option
