Made using the oldest metal casting technique known to mankind – the Dhokra process in Bengal uses the ‘lost-wax’(Cire-perdue) process of casting. The object first shaped in clay, is covered with wax and then moulded over. During the process of heat casting the wax is ‘lost’. Each object is a unique expression of the craft person’s skill.
