A charpai, also known as charpoy, is a traditional woven bed used in South Asia, particularly in India, Pakistan, and Bangladesh. It consists of a simple wooden frame, usually made of bamboo or other types of wood, with a webbing of rope or other strong fibres stretched tightly across it to create a sleeping surface. The design is highly functional, offering a lightweight, portable, and comfortable solution for sleeping, especially in warm climates.
Charpais are deeply embedded in the rural lifestyle and are often used for sitting and socializing in addition to sleeping. They are a common sight in courtyards, on verandas, and under trees in villages.
