Screw Pine Bags
Thazhappaya, the screw pine mat, is a proud symbol of Thazhava's own tradition and heritage. Weavers of Thazhava Grama Panchayat skilfully craft a wide range of beautiful items from screw pine leaves. Once limited to simple sleeping mats, this art has grown into a variety of products that meet modern needs.
