About the Craft
Jute craft in Assam has deep cultural roots, with artisans developing expertise in working with this versatile natural fibre over generations. The process begins with selecting quality soft jute that is pliable enough for intricate weaving yet sturdy enough for practical use. Craftsmen carefully wind and coil the jute strands, building up the tray's walls layer by layer in a spiral pattern. The distinctive fringe detail along the sides is meticulously created by looping individual jute threads, adding texture and visual interest. The base features a complementary woven mat that provides stability and completes the design. This coiling technique requires patience and precision, with artisans spending hours shaping each tray by hand, ensuring even walls and a smooth finish.
Speciality
What makes this jute tray special is its perfect balance between rustic charm and refined craftsmanship. The textured fringe adds character whilst the earthy colour palette ensures it complements various interior styles. The soft jute construction gives it a pleasant tactile quality that harder materials cannot match.
