Binna is an age old product that was widely used in the Dogra culture. It is a flat, round mat type of structure that was used as a seat while sitting on the ground. It used to give comfort and protection from the bare ground in the rural households of Jammu and Kashmir. Three main materials are required for its making without any machinery. The most important raw material is the grass or wild palm leaves. These are sourced very easily from the nearby forests. A needle is the only tool that is used to weave the leaves. It is a thin and long sewing needle with an eye wide enough to fit the leaves. And lastly, the colored dyes.

Now, since, the use of such a product is limited in modern times, the artisans of the districts of Jammu have remodelled them and turned them into wall decor items, coasters, baskets, pen-stands etc. All these products are eco-friendly and can be customised according to the wishes of the clients.
