Traditionally used to store ghee and oils. They are convenient and aestheic in our modern homes
Brass is known to retain ant-oxidant properties due to the presence of Zinc.
The ancient brass thooku container is a revival of an age-old design using a model of a 100 year old vessel along with the artisans in Andhra Pradesh.
The unique aspects of this craft is that the top and bottom segments are attached though coupling and beating which is a very traditional way of joining instead of welding.
The community is known for their exceptional skills in making brass masterpieces for over 1000 years.
We collaborated with this community for the revival of both their livelihood and our ancient design.
It has a traditional shape and resembles the pot over pot design, where in olden days the pots containing ghee and curds are hung one over the other in a rope saddle.
