Artisans & Craftsmanship

Every product carries the skill of hands that have worked with bamboo and cane for years.

Artisan weaving bamboo in a Northeast India workshop

Northeast Loom works with artisan partners — not anonymous factories. We know the regions where our products are made, the materials used, and the conditions in which people work. This matters to us, and to the buyers who choose our products.

Regions We Work With

Meghalaya

Khasi and Garo communities have long woven bamboo into baskets, mats, and household items. Workshops in the East Khasi Hills supply many of our storage baskets and lampshades.

Assam

Assam's cane forests support a tradition of basket-making used in markets and homes. Our cane storage and planter pieces come from artisan groups in Barpeta and Kamrup.

Tripura & Nagaland

Smaller workshops in Tripura and Nagaland produce fruit baskets, laundry baskets, and specialty pieces. We visit regularly to maintain quality and fair working relationships.
