Braided Jute Wall Hanging

West Bengal

Jute grows in the delta soil of Bengal, and working its fibre into rope, mats, and hangings is old household knowledge there. This wall piece is braided and knotted from undyed jute cord over a wooden rod, ending in a combed fringe. The fibre's honey-brown tone and dry, grainy texture warm up a plain wall without shouting.

The hands
Retted jute fibre is twisted into cord by hand, then braided and knotted row by row over a wooden dowel, with the fringe combed out last.

Buying handmade keeps a craft in work. That is the whole model — no middle story.
