THE CRAFT

Ayurveda’s Ancient Healing Metal, Hand-Hammered for Modern Meals

This is bronze (kansa) as the Indus Valley conceived it: 78% copper + 22% tin, forged at 700°C and shaped by kansari karigars through synchronized, collective hammering. No lacquers or sealants interrupt bronze's dialogue with air.

Bronze is believed to balance energies, deepen flavors, and evolve into a darker, wiser version of itself over time. Its dual texture (matte exterior, luminous interior) turns berries or rice into tactile rituals.
