Project Description

Uttar Pradesh has a custom of making baskets for everyday uses and for special occasions by coiling the outer layers of the grass called moonj. This craft is practiced mostly by women. Moonj and rara are kinds of wild grass which grow near the banks of the rivers around Allahabad. Moonj is external layer of the grass which is stripped and tied. This workmanship is been rehearsed from the last 60 to 70 years. The grass is cut throughout the colder time of year and the strip of the stalks is forgotten about in dew for quite a long time to help its tone. Numerous spilts are colored in brilliant tone and restricting is done these days with plastic strips, sparkle or material. The themes of basketry are made by adding hued grass in the middle.
