If your home decor board on Pinterest has more images saved than any of your other boards, then you're going to love The Skilled Samaritan! It's a brand that sells pretty, up-cycled home decor online. The Skilled Samaritan is an NGO that works with women of disadvantaged communities to construct modern, and chic versions of the Charpai with the help of the traditional weaving techniques.
They build stools, trunks, trays, bags, and also, some really pretty storage boxes out of waste products like plastic wrappers and fabric rags. So basically, the wonderful team at Skilled Samaritan creates a rope out of these waste products and then, weaves them against metal, or wooden frames (just like our desi charpai beds).
We personally love their Bulbul Trunk Box (INR 5,500), Charpai Trousseau Trunk (INR, 7,200), Dare-y Milk (A trunk made of thrown away dairy milk wrappers) and their Spiker bench (INR 8,500) made of cotton fibre macrame ropes and Jamoa wood.
