North East traditional crafts
include jute, cane and bamboo products. Jute and cane handicrafts often referred to as
“Golden Fibre”, are eco-friendly, bio degradable and have earned worldwide
recognition. The artefacts and furniture made with Jute and cane is mostly liked
by consumers to give a fresh look to the interiors. Today Indian craftpersons
have honed their skills to transform the natural fibre into products of daily
use ranging from mats, bags, lamp shades, flower vase, office stationery,
hangings, accessories and a multitude of other utility and decorative products.
Textile weaving is one of the
developed art forms among the tribes of the North Eastern region. The textiles
are usually in bright and striking colours with variety of geometric patterns
to make the textiles quite distinctive. Other patterns carry curvilinear
designs, conventionalized motifs symbolizing various floral forms. Three
dimensional effect is given through use of sharp contrasting colours and use of
thick woolen yarn over the white cotton base, diamond patterns are generally
outlined in green thread and deep red yarn.
