Just jute: Jute products in Chennai

Walking along the streets, you notice a lady carrying a funky-looking bag. Is it leather? Is it synthetic? Walk closer and you catch your breath, its jute! You never knew jute looked so colourful and trendy. If you decide to sport an eco-friendly accessory, nothing works better than jute. Here are the places you can check out.

Jute Emporium on TTK Road , Alwarpet, can be your first port of call. If jute equates with gunny bags in your scheme of things, Jute Emporium will help you learn a thing or two. Step into this little store and wow yourself with the range of tempting products: hand bags, back packs, mobile pouches, wall hangings and comfortable hammocks. You can give your office space that earthy feel too: pick up jute-made files, folders, coasters and pen-holders. A family-run business, Jute Emporium is much more than a mere store, it’s literally an eye-opener!

Richly-crafted jute slippers and slip-ons, hand bags of varied shapes and sizes, funky jewellery boxes can be found in all the outlets of Health n’ Glow. Match that jute bag with cute-looking jute earrings. There may not be too much to choose from, but what they have is worth a dekko.

Other places you can hop in to are Shoppers Stop (Harrington Road), Westside (Spencer’s Plaza) and Globus (T Nagar). If you are around Spencer’s, you could also feast your eyes at the Jute Store, tucked away in a corner, near Gayatri Chaat.
