It is woven mainly in Narayanganj district near Dhaka, in Rupganj, Sonargaon and Siddhirganj along the Shitalakshya river.Shital Pati3 piecesShital Pati is a hand-woven mat made from thin strips of murta, a green cane-like plant that grows near water. It stays cool to sit or sleep on, which gives it its name. It is woven mainly in the greater Sylhet region, with smaller weaving pockets elsewhere, including Jhalokati in Barishal division.TerracottaRead the guideTerracotta is low-fired clay, shaped by hand into plaques, tiles, figurines, lamps and vases.
