Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

Kashmiri repousse metalwork is a traditional craft from northern India characterised by intricate patterns hammered into relief from the reverse side of metal sheets. The style often features dense floral arabesques, paisley motifs, and intricate openwork piercing influenced by Persian artistic traditions.

These trays were primarily crafted from sheet copper or brass, which provided the ductility required for detailed repousse and chasing work. Many pieces were subsequently coated with tin or electroplated with silver to create a contrasting, reflective surface.

Authentic period pieces exhibit hand-hammered tool marks on the reverse, subtle irregularities in the repeating pattern, and natural wear where the silver plating has rubbed away to reveal the underlying copper substrate.

A decorative metal charger can be mounted on a focal wall, displayed upright on a plate stand atop a sideboard, or positioned at the centre of a dining table to add tactile interest and metallic warmth to the space.

Dust gently with a soft, dry lint-free cloth. Avoid abrasive metal polishes or harsh chemical dips, as these remove the remaining silver plating and delicate patination; a light application of microcrystalline wax can protect the metal from oxidisation.
