About Artisan: Ardhendu Shekhar Das specialises in the craft of golden grass weaving. Belonging to Midnapur District of West Bengal, Das continues to take forward a more than 70 year old legacy of his forefathers, creating eco-friendly and natural grass mats.
On completing his education, he started working with his father, Anil Chandra Das almost 20 years ago.
A State Awardee known for his craft, his father created employment opportunuties for almost 50 artisans from his village, which is now overseen by Ardhendu himself.

About Craft:Golden grass is grown on dry land, and then harvested after 6 months to prepare the raw material. After refining and drying the raw grass, the grass is softened by damping it with water to create products like dining mats, yoga mats, curtains, baskets, bags, bottle holders, pulling chiks and more.
