Customer Reviews
"Zishta is not just a store; it is a doorway to a healthier, more meaningful way of life. Their traditional vessels—crafted from kansa (bronze), pital (brass), kalchatti (soapstone), black pottery, tin, neem wood—are more than kitchen tools; they are treasures that bring back the nostalgia of childhood, like being fed by my dadi from dishes prepared in these timeless vessels.
My journey with Zishta has been transformative. Switching to traditional cookware marked a turning point in my life. Despite a PCOD and thyroid diagnosis in my 30s, I’ve remained healthy and symptom-free, with only minor signs like facial hair that don’t trouble me. My husband’s experiences are equally remarkable. From COVID and tuberculosis to jaundice, his strong gut—thanks to home-cooked meals prepared in Zishta vessels—has kept him resilient, sparing him from hospitalizations and major side effects.
Today, my husband has embraced home-cooked meals wholeheartedly, and I can’t thank Zishta enough for being a part of this beautiful journey. Their products not only connect us to our roots but also foster a healthier lifestyle. From the bottom of my heart, thank you, Zishta. Words can barely express my gratitude for all the positivity and health your vessels have brought into our lives."
