Product Details

Traditional brassware crafting in India is an ancient heritage deeply rooted in regional metalworking traditions passed down through generations. Artisans employ techniques like repoussé and chasing to create intricate floral and geometric motifs across various ritual and decorative objects. These items have historically served both functional purposes in households and spiritual roles in religious ceremonies. The inclusion of pierced motifs, such as hearts or stylized foliage, became popular in export and domestic decorative metalware during the mid-to-late 20th century. Production centers like Moradabad, often known as the 'Brass City' of India, specialized in creating such hand-engraved and pierced brass vessels for global markets. Today, these pieces are widely appreciated for their ornate craftsmanship and enduring golden finish.

About the Seller
Hey there, I’m Heather — the heart behind Upcycled With Purpose. I’m all about junkin’, salvaging, and turning rusty, crusty finds into something beautiful again. I love the chippy, imperfect pieces that carry history, character, and a whole lot of charm. More than anything, I believe God can take what’s been overlooked and give it new purpose — and that’s what this shop is all about. So grab a seat, have some fun, and let’s find you something good 🌻🌻 Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/share/1PKNhfS4c1/?mibextid=wwXIfr
