Bamboo, cane and straw
Products made of bamboo, cane and straw have been produced in households for generations to create utilitarian items.  Today, many new products have been designed to respond to export demands such as mats, baskets, bags, boxes, trays, coasters, flower vases and various types of containers. The bamboo, cane and straw products come from Godauri near the Kathmandu Valley from one producers’ group of about 10 workers.  The raw material is found locally.
