Bamboo and Folk Art

At The Bamboo Store, we are forever trying out new things as we believe bamboo is an amazing material with the potential to take any form or function. Bored of the same old same old glass and metal wall lights, we hit upon the idea of using handmade paper from Sikkim and bamboo to create some simple wall lights ...and to embellish them we had Madhubani artist Pradyumna Kumar do some exquisite black and white drawings. For table top accessories, we worked with artist Mantu Chitrakar and his family to create some amazing colourful tea-light holders. Enjoy...

Bamboo - No Limits

Bamboo Fruit tray

Bamboo flooring tiles

The most amazing thing about bamboo for me is that there are no limits to how you can use bamboo and what you can do with bamboo - from food to flooring, from basket to bridge, from flute to furniture, bamboo can be used for so many things ..it is truly a Miracle Grass. At The Bamboo Store, we are pleased to showcase more than 50 bamboo products at any given time

Bamboo Artisans from Meghalaya

Shahriyar has been conducting training programs for bamboo artisans in Meghalaya .. the people living there have a natural felicity for working with bamboo .. sitting on the floor, perched on rooftops, bamboo is everywhere. ... products are now being sold at the Bamboo Store

Enjoy - bamboo groves

A bamboo grove is a beautiful place to spend some time .. the wind whistling through the rustling leaves, the stately bamboo plants reaching for the sky, the soothing green ..these are all designed to calm the mind, and soothe the heart.

These are some pictures from Dehradun..enjoy

The Bamboo Store at UN Day

It gives me immense pleasure to let you know that the Bamboo Store was part of the United Nations Day International Year of Natural Fibres (IYNF) celebrations at UN Headquarters New Delhi. Jaya Jaitley and Dastakari Haat Samiti put up a wonderful show called from Grass to Gold and there were many products from the Bamboo Store there

Bamboo pavilion by NMBA wins gold award

From 14-27 November, The Bamboo Store has been at the India International Trade Fair IITF 2009 as part of the National Mission on Bamboo Applications ( NMBA)'s specially designed bamboo pavilion. We had a display there of our bamboo products and I was conducting the first of its kind bamboo festival called BAMBOOSTIC ! I am happy to report that the festival was a super success with participation from people of all age groups and backgrounds ( from 3 to 60 year olds) who expressed themselves creatively in the painting, slogan and poetry writing competitions, all bamboo themed.

The icing on the cake however is that the NMBA pavilion won the Gold Award for Best Display ....................... putting bamboo definitely in the forefront !!

And while everyone focusses on the problem of climate change and global warming, all of us in the bamboo world including the participants of BAMBOOSTIC would like to offer bamboo as part of the solution to deforestation and other environmental problems.
