METAL ART OF MORADABAD

The brassware industry in Moradabad bloomed in early 19th century and British took the art to foreign markets. Other immigrating artisans from Banaras, Lucknow, Agra and many other places formed the current cluster of brassware industry in Moradabad. With over 75 percent of the population dependent on metal work, Moradabad has carved a niche of its own. Designs made on metal products here display culture, heritage, history and diversity. Artisans create intricate pieces by special processes like casting, moulding, naqqashi and other ornamental techniques. Made of iron, this Wire drop Triple T-Light holder has been meticulously handcrafted for you by the artisans of Moradabad (Uttar Pradesh).
