Hindolo - A Braided Swing

A technique that has been celebrated for around 4 decades passed on from practicing craftspersons in the western region has been taken as an inspiration in this project where different techniques along with visualization, observation, and hands-on experience products like hindolo-(braided swing) and hanging light have been made. The hanging light is fully molded into an organic shape with the help of ply-split braiding.
Hindolo is one of a kind Ply-split braided swing supported by a single wooden log.
