The Craft of Making Metal Vessels
by
Design
Over a period of time the craftsmen have designed variously shaped hammers that give different impression on the metal vessel. The artisans also believe that these dents give strength to the vessel and prevent it from further damage. These hammer strokes also highlight the form and texture of the product. The most commonly used texture is called Matthaar. Apart from this artisans also do metal engraving, Chitaai etc. to enhance the product.
