Description

Dokra craft is an ancient Indian metal art practiced for over 4,000 years, linked to the Indus Valley Civilization. It uses the traditional lost-wax casting technique to create unique brass artifacts. Practiced in states like West Bengal, Odisha, and Chhattisgarh, it is known for its rustic and tribal aesthetic. Artisans handcraft figurines, jewelry, and decorative items, often inspired by nature and folklore. Each piece is one-of-a-kind, as the mold is broken after casting. Dokra craft represents cultural heritage, sustainability, and the skilled traditions of India’s tribal communities.
