About dhokra

Dhokra is an ancient craft that uses the lost-wax casting technique, and is mainly from three regions: West Bengal, Odisha and Jharkhand.

Each product goes through several stages:

1. First, blocks of wax are hand-moulded into shape, and decorations added using wax threads.
2. The shape is then carefully covered with layers of clay, taking the form of the wax on the inside.
3. The clay is baked, during which the wax melts and drains away, leaving a mould (a hollow within the clay).
4. The mould is then filled with molten metal, which takes the shape that the wax left behind.
5. The clay is then chipped off and the end product is polished and finished.

Each piece must to be made separately, and is never exactly the same as the others. This is the mark of a true handmade item.
