about craft

Kansa metal craft of Odisha is a centuries-old tradition of making utensils and decorative items from bell metal, an alloy of copper and tin. Known for its durability and health benefits, Kansa cookware is handcrafted by skilled artisans using age-old techniques like hand-hammering and casting. The craft is prominent in places like Balakati and Kantilo, where families have practiced it for generations. Kansa utensils enhance the flavor of food and are believed to aid digestion. Today, this eco-friendly and sustainable craft is gaining popularity globally, blending tradition with modern utility while providing livelihoods to artisans and preserving cultural heritage.
