Woven dialogue of Bengali heritage and modern form
Furniture
Ø 45" x 32" H
This foyer table represents a fusion of traditional Bengali craftsmanship and contemporary furniture design. It integrates the functional art of Shital Pati (Cool Mat)—hand-woven by master artist Haren Das from Sylhet—into a modern architectural form designed by Thús Huma.The dark, pedestal-style foyer table in the image is covered with a Shitol Pati, or “Cool Mat,” representing a “woven dialogue of heritage and mastery”. This piece is the result of a “consequential collaboration” between Huma Sulaiman of the West Hollywood design space Thús Huma and Haren, a “revered custodian” and master weaver from Sylhet, Bangladesh. The mat itself is crafted from raw Mutra cane strands that are soaked in rice water to achieve a “lustrous, ivory sheen” before being woven into “complex, mathematical geometries” without the use of a loom. Haren is recognized as the “only survivor artist” capable of executing these intricate, academic patterns. Through this partnership, Thús Huma frames Haren’s “actualised artistry” as an “eco-friendly, zero-waste” masterpiece, creating a “contemporary sanctuary” where ancient Bengali tradition meets modern luxury.
Haren Das is a master weaver and one of the last custodians of the Shitol Pati tradition from Sylhet, Bangladesh. His work transforms hand-split mutra cane into intricate woven surfaces, preserving a UNESCO-recognized craft through contemporary applications that honour its cultural and material integrity.
Huma Sulaiman is an aesthete whose design philosophy bridges the worldly and the intimate. Her journey is one of passion and precision, shaped by years of discovery and an innate ability to weave narratives through spaces.Thús Huma is a gathering of seemingly disparate worlds: of geography, of art & design, that Huma is translating for contemporary audiences
