We visited this place in April to explore the traditional artisans who made the best cast iron cookware in the country. They were known for the quality of Iron being used and the craftsmanship. They were known to use the Railway grade iron, which is considered the best grade of cast iron. From a bustling center with more than 30 workshops making Cast iron cookware and shipped across India, it has dwindled down to just two who are striving hard to keep the business going.
We visited them again in October to do a photoshoot and we got an opportunity to observe in close quarters, the manual labour that goes behind the making of every cookware product by these artisans. Sheer muscle power, effective coordination and precise movements are key ingredients in making a perfect cookware.
