@dsourceindiaJakhoi and Khaloi is Design Resources from IIT Guwahati. Assam has an agrarian economy. Bamboo, due to its abundant availability, is used by people in innumerable ways, like for building homes, bridges, household products, and fancy decorative items. Two traditional household products commonly used are 'Khaloi' and 'Jakhoi'. It's mostly practised in two towns of Assam - 'Barpeta' and 'Nalbari'. Barpeta craftsmen are known for making beautiful woven baskets, accessories, souvenirs, fishing nets, baskets, sieves, and large grain storing vessels made from bamboo. Whereas huge grain storing bamboo baskets, a net for catching fish, a sieve, a wall hanging, and even intricate jewellery are made with this amazing variety of grass by the Nalbari craftsmen.
