Potli

This banana fibre bag has evolved through generations and blends ancient traditions with sustainable style.

Inspiration

In the epic days of Mahabharata, the mighty Pandavas carried their precious belongings in humble potli bags during their forest exile. Their queen Draupadi’s magical Akshaya Patra, wrapped lovingly in a potli, provided endless nourishment – a testament to the profound connection between nature’s gifts and human need. Woven into the very fabric of Indian history since Vedic times, potli bags have been more than mere carriers – they were guardians of hope, blessed to protect their precious contents through life’s harshest trials. Through centuries, these versatile bags have gracefully evolved, transforming from humble cloth bundles into cherished fashion statements, celebrating the living artistry of Indian craftsmanship.

Today, Nirantharaa draws inspiration from this timeless wisdom, crafting contemporary bags from nature’s bounty – the sustainable banana fiber. Our vision extends beyond mere products. We see our young generation – our future torchbearers – carrying these eco-friendly bags with pride. For who better than these bright minds to show the world that style and sustainability can walk hand in hand? Just as the Pandavas carried their hopes in potlis, these banana fiber bags carry our hopes for a greener tomorrow, woven with threads of tradition and innovation.
