The main material used in our product range is Sabai Grass.
So let me put some light on Sabai grass, this grass is cultivated in the rural areas of Orissa and also in West Bengal.
Process
Let’s together see the procedure which is practised by Kathaakaar when it comes to creating a product using Sabai grass.
As the grass grows abundantly, it needs to be harvested for the production of products in particular months.
Harvesting
In the months of September-October, the harvesting of Sabai grass takes place. It is then harvested and dried up in the sun and then bundled.
Dyeing
The Sabai grass is coloured using vegetable dyes. In proportion to hot water, the colours are added, then the strands are soaked in boiling water and then dried up in sun.
Rope Making
The torn grass is twisted by hand and then is used to pin the twists by a cycling ring. By rubbing them onto tree trunks, rough corners are removed. The ropes are then arranged into bundles after they have been twisted.
Braid Making
The grass is hand-woven and the raw corners are cut off. The grass is also sorted by its length and quality at this stage.
Final Product
The twisted braids are turned into products like baskets, mattresses, table runners and a wide variety of other durable products. Oomph! The Sabai grass process ends and the product making starts! Products like baskets, mats, laptop bags, tablet purses, tote bags, table runners, decorative plates, etc. can be crafted with Sabai Grass. Why not start using organic products to reduce the use of plastic and create an eco-friendly atmosphere in our surroundings. With the increase in the usage of organic and sustainable products, we will be able to create a beautiful tomorrow.
