Babui baadi is Enoy’s tribute to one of the most artistic, hardworking and intelligent bird “Baya-The weaver bird” known for their hanging retort shaped pendulous nests woven from leaves and twigs.
Literature suggests that origin of some of the Indian species of baya can be traced back to Bengal. A widespread belief in India is that the baya sticks fireflies with mud to the nest walls to light up the interior of nest at night.
Hence babui baadi pendant lamps reflects the nests of our baya birds with light accessories instead of fireflies and based on the origin of Indian baya these lamps derive their name in Bengali ( babui – baya ; badi – home).
