Khaat in India is one of the simplest furniture that has been in use for more than five thousand years. The craft of Khaat making, carried out manually with basic tools and some calculative planning of mind is exemplary of innovation, perception and sensitivity. The rope interlaced surface renders the Khaat complete in terms of structure as well as function. With flexibility in form, Khaat's surface adjusts to the sitting or the reclining body to give comfort.
Not very common in the urban settings in current times, Khaat is still used in abundance amongst the rural parts of India or the lower strata of society. It is an indispensable piece of furniture that finds diverse uses ranging from sitting, sleeping to drying clothes and spreading spices, used well both indoors and outdoors.
An object working in its own culture and time gradually becomes inconspicuous in it's surroundings.
