Every dent is deliberate. Shaped by thathera artisans, a technique passed through generations. Taksh: Sanskrit for "to chisel." Each mark, a signature.
Hammered into form by thatheras this brass urli like bowl carries the quiet strength of generational craft. Taksh (तक्ष), a Sanskrit word meaning "to chisel" or "to sculpt", honours the precision of hand-formed metal. Hand-hammered by skilled thatheras using generations-old techniques each piece carries the rhythm of its making. The gentle curves are shaped through measured strikes making it a multipurpose bowl that can hold floating petals, festive diyas, handfuls of ice or dry offerings like nuts and sweets — always adding a sculptural statement to its setting.

Some Objects Are Made. This One Was Earned.
The thathera tradition of brass and copper craft is centuries old — a UNESCO recognised heritage that lives in the hands of artisans who learned by watching, then doing, then mastering. Every hammer strike on the Taksh bowl is intentional. Every dent a decision. The result is a surface that looks like it has already lived a life worth living before it even reaches your home.
Float rose petals in it for a dinner centrepiece. Line it with diyas for Diwali. Fill it with artisan sweets for a festive spread. Use it as a sculptural accent on a console or coffee table that needs one beautiful thing to anchor it. The Taksh doesn't just sit in a space — it commands it quietly. And as the brass deepens with age and use it only becomes more beautiful. Available exclusively on Tooffi, India's marketplace for independent makers who carry centuries of Indian craft into contemporary homes.
