ABOUT SIKKI GRASS

Sikki Grass is a special kind of grass found in India’s Bihar and Uttar Pradesh states. This craft is majorly practiced in Bihar mostly by women artisans. The making of Sikki Grass craft mainly depends on the prepping of raw material which is done by drying out the grasses to obtain the flexible golden fibre. This fibre is used for the weaving of toys, baskets, storage boxes, and even handbags. The fibres can also be dyed using natural vibrant colors to make colorful handicrafts. Sikki Grass Boxes hold great significance in Indian culture as they are given as a wedding gift by parents to their daughters.
