Banana Fibre Craft has its origins in South India, where banana plants were cultivated extensively for food, rituals, and household use. Traditionally, after harvesting the fruit, the banana pseudostem was considered agricultural waste. Rural communities began extracting fibres from the inner bark to make ropes, mats, cords, and threads. Over generations, artisans developed advanced techniques to convert banana fibre into a soft, glossy, and durable natural textile.
