Where to buy Assamese handicrafts online?

The North-East Indian state of Assam, is a land of wonder filled with culture, colour and traditions in each nook and corner of the region. Every single person belonging to Assam takes great pride in the beauty as well as in the talent existing in the place. One such talent of Assam is the art of creating beautiful handicraft pieces.

The handicrafts designed and developed by the magical hands of the craftsmen in Assam, represent the region’s primitive simplicity, elegance and purity that too in its rarest form. They not only add beauty to the land, but even contribute to Assam’s economy and reputation as well. Visitors from all around the globe tend to visit Assam and buy these hand crafted items to add a tiny piece of Assam’s creation in their own homes.

Our world today has evolved by a great extent and everything has become available digitally, through the online platforms. We can order the things that we want to buy with just a finger’s tap on our smartphones/PCs/Laptops. Assam too has hopped on this modern train of selling indigenous goods, dresses, food, etc. online, but compared to the other Indian states, this journey of Assam is very new.

Some of the mesmerizing handicrafts of Assam include the items like – Japi, Cane and Bamboo decorative items, Cane and Bamboo furniture, Cane and Bamboo items for daily usage, handmade wooden jewellery and the list goes on and on. However, the truth is that Assam is only at its initial stage of the journey of selling such craft items nationally/globally.

Popular online shopping applications and websites like Amazon, Flipkart, Snapdeal, Indiamart and Ethnicpip are a few that have been selling Assamese handicrafts for sometime. But when it comes to applications and sites designed by the local people of Assam themselves, specifically for the purpose of selling the crafts made in Assam, there are a countable number available, that are specifically made for this cause.

We have compiled a list of some of the Assamese websites and online applications, that sell Assmaese handicrafts, with an aim to promote our indigenous goods. Also, the list below follows no particular order.

1) Assam Clicks: The app is a highly vibrant Assamese online shopping app, where one can buy certain clothing and handicraft items.

The Assam Clicks app has over 1000+ downloads on Play Store with a rating of 3.3 stars.

The products offered by Assam Clicks include – bottles and mugs made out of bamboo, decor items for home made out of bamboo and a few handmade Assamese jewellery. The uniqueness of their shopping site is that, when you will visit their website and select a handicraft item to buy, you will get to read in details about the benefits of using bamboo products and also about the measures that you will need to take regarding that particular item’s management. Generally, such a feature of long description is not found in any other online shopping sites, but Assam Clicks has come up with this initiative to promote the local products in a clear and transparent manner. However, the only drawback of “Assam Clicks” is that they do not have numerous options available and there are only some countable Assamese handicrafts that the site and application has to offer.
