From Brahmaputra to the world.
Know Brahmaputra Fables
We showcase stories of our artisans and weavers through Handloom and Handicraft products of Northeast India.
In 2014-16, Our Founder Dhruba Jyoti Deka was in Pondicherry, pursuing a Master’s degree in Chemistry.
While there, he, along with other Northeast students, would put up fests and shows that highlighted the culture of the area through song, dance and theatre. His classmates from other states was completely new to Northeast culture, were awestruck at the novel art forms.
As people from other states had no idea about the kind of rich cultural diversity in the Northeast and that’s when he got the idea to introduce Northeastern culture and handicrafts to the rest of India.
When Dhruba graduated from Pondicherry University in 2016, he returned home to his village, Sarthebari — famous for its brass and bell metal work. There are still plenty of skilled bell metal artisans in Sarthebari, But most artisans lose out on a significant cut of their profits to middlemen.
So to improve the artisan’s livelihood & to showcase culture and tradition of North East India, Brahmaputra Fables officially launched in June 2017, with 30 artisans on board selling 100 products.
Now Brahmaputra Fables is a digital integration of more than 3000 artisans and weavers across Northeast India.
