bamboo strips

Thin grass pieces

Bamboo strips are narrow pieces cut lengthwise from bamboo stalks, used in weaving, construction, and crafts.

Traditional Asian basketry, mats, and screens are made from interlaced bamboo strips.

They also appear in cooking—food wrapped in bamboo strips for steaming—and in musical instruments.

The artisan wove bamboo strips into an intricate pattern.
