| Notes: | These types of baskets are made in the hill regions by Tamang, Sherpa, Gurung, Rai and Limbu people. The bamboo filters are used in the final process of producing an alcoholic drink 'jaand' from wheat, millet or maize. The fine open weave 2/2 twill filt, ers with the 4 deocratively stitched strengthening bars re made by men. The drink is prepared by women and is enjoyed by all. Sometimes it is sold to weary travellers, or on Feasts and market days. | ||||
