Why brass, not glass
A goblet that improves with age and does something for you while you drink.
Naturally cooling
Brass holds a chill 3× longer than glass — drinks stay cold from first pour to last.
Ayurvedic tradition
Copper-zinc alloy used for drinking vessels in Indian homes for centuries.
Unbreakable
Drop it, pack it, gift it. No shards, no replacements.
Made by hand
Each flute takes one artisan four hours to cast, turn and engrave.
Hours of hammering. A lifetime of use.
Produced in the family workshop in Moradabad, using the same method of engraving that has been handed down from father to son for three generations. This piece is finished with an antique finish that is not sprayed on; it is layered to wear as an heirloom.
- A pure copper sheet is cut and shaped into a bottle blank.
- The body is turned and smoothed on a lathe.
- Edges are smoothed and the piece is polished by hand.
- Cap and seal are fitted, then each bottle is inspected and packed.
What's in the box
Every piece is packed the same way. Tap a layer to lift it.
Rigid maroon box with the Kailasam mountain motif in gold foil. Sturdy enough to keep for years.
Unbleached tissue and a champagne ribbon, tied by hand.
Cut to shape so every piece arrives unmarked and nothing knocks together in transit.
Lab report for this batch: pure metal, lead-free.
The simple lime-and-salt method, and a soft cotton cloth to do it with.
Handwritten on cotton card, tucked under the ribbon. No invoice in the box.
