West Bengal, often called the "Harvest Land" of handicrafts and handlooms, is home to a rich tradition of artisanal crafts that have flourished for centuries. Among the wide variety of crafts that the state is known for, jute handicrafts stand out due to their eco-friendliness, strength, and versatility. The Bengal crafts, known for their intricate designs and high-quality materials, have earned a significant place in India’s handicraft market. One of the key reasons behind the continued success of these crafts is the ready availability of raw materials and low labor costs in the region, making West Bengal a hub for such endeavors.
