Leaf plates and bowls have been used for decades in India along with earthenware cups. In olden days they used to be handmade.

Not decades - eons

Then why did we chuck it..just to look more elegant..now since westerners have started it we will keep boasting of our heritage.

They are still used to give prasad in temples in south India, esp. TN

-
Sir I know that..the point is that we loose our nerve protecting our heritage and then take pride when some1 else makes best use of it.
-
Pride or not, it's a fact that we have been using such plates and cups. What is wrong in stating facts?
-
Nothing wrong telling facts but wrong to leave traditions. Do we use leaf plates in our parties any more..
-
We will buy from this company at exorbitant rates and use in future

As long as they don't start chopping down forests to accommodate the growing of this leaf then it's a great idea.

The mud plate brand out of Ghaziabad.

Yes, same client but not mud... Plates, trays, cups made out of
#biodegradable ,#ecofriendly paper made from sugarcane waste - End of conversation

It would be great to see this kind of concept used for packaging of goods etc instead of plastics, could be composted after use

Sounds good, though presumably only for single use, and just wonder if this idea goes big-scale, are creeper trees sustainable?
