Banana Fibre and Palm Leaf Hand Bags Banana fibre, whose extraction has been developed in South India, is being used for clothes, rugs, sarees and many other products. The fibre is extracted from the sheath of banana by hand or machine. Our collection includes shopping bags, placemats and rugs made of banana fibre. Palm leaves are cut, sun dried, spliced, dyed and then used to make bags and other decorative items using weaving, wrapping, braiding and knotting techniques.
