Handicrafts
Brass and wood
Metal ware cast, turned and finished by hand in Moradabad, and wooden pieces carved in Saharanpur. We produce to our catalogue or to your own designs and samples, for home décor, tableware and gift ranges.
Sourced from Moradabad and Saharanpur, Uttar Pradesh
Where it comes from
Moradabad is known in India as Peetal Nagri, the brass city. Its workshops cast, turn, engrave and polish metal by hand, and most designs pass through several specialist workshops before they are finished.
Saharanpur has carved wood for more than a century. Carvers there work in sheesham (Indian rosewood) and mango wood, cutting floral and geometric patterns by hand. We manage sampling, production and quality checks across both towns so you deal with one supplier.
