Hammered Copper & Steel rice Serving bowl with glass lid (large)

Description

Ideal for serving rice, curries or any freshly cooked meal, this copper and steel handi bowl features a hammered design and comes with a glass lid to keep food warm. As the name suggests, hand hammering involves beating metal by hand to give it a desired shape and design. It has been a big part of the Indian history of traditional crafting. Metalworks were standard household articles, all of which were hand-beaten by the native artisans. It still holds its value today in artisanal crafting because it provides artisans with the freedom to innovate and customize to leave a unique mark on every crafting. This is where the technique differs from machine hammering, where a standard pattern repeats itself on every piece. It also reduces the manufacturing waste to zero because every last bit of the metal gets efficiently used in the process. Color : Brown. Production Method : Handmade.
