short description
The bamboo scraper happens to be one such traditional instrument made by them; it is one of the simple yet useful implements to be used for various household or agricultural purposes. This scraper is made by bending a single split piece of bamboo into the shape of a loop. The edge which actually works has a loop shape, which makes it perfect in scraping any surface, cleaning, or processing agricultural produce. The ends of the split bamboo are tied across to maintain durability and holding the shape. This shape will allow flexibility, durability, and ease of application of the tool.
The Khamti tribe of Arunachal Pradesh has for centuries invented completely new uses of bamboo in craftsmanship. For the community, bamboo is worth a fortune; it is a resource that is readily available and very eco-friendly. Over ages, houses and tools were made, and even religious articles came into being. This knowledge of bamboo properties facilitates making long-lasting functional implements like this scraper and reflects their sustainable habitat. The Khamti are a Theravāda Buddhist group, having their own written form developed as Lik-Tai and expressing their culture through art and those handcrafted bamboo products which still remain in their possession. Thus, indicating a heritage influencing life, action and intimacy in the relationship with nature.
