Rustic Copper Bowl (Nepal)
Rich and rustic, each of these hand hammered bowls is an original. The basic design and natural materials ensure that this bowl will complement a range of decors. Try it next to another selection from WorldStock's Nepalese copper series. Each bowl is individually made by artisans in Biswakarma, in Western Nepal. As with most authentic creative traditions, copper is used because it is a locally available material with which artisans have generations of experience. But each of these bowls also contains an element of recycled copper, for the sustainable management of the resource. The Association of Craft Producers is among Nepal's largest artisan organizations, working with hundreds of mostly rural producers. The urban service hub provides technical, logistical and marketing support, enabling artisans to practice their crafts at home. An array of savings and training programs bridge the gap between a craft skill and genuine self-sufficiency. The handcrafted nature of this product will produce slight variations in form and sizing. All measurements are approximate.
