These meditative dervishes whirl with their right palms extended upwards and their left palms facing down, symbolising the flow of grace from higher realms to humanity. Available in engraved or silver inlay form. Bidriware is a decorative form of metalwork in a copper and zinc alloy dating back to the 15th century. With its roots in Persia, this craft of silver inlay is unique to the Indian Deccan.
The final coating of earth, found only at the Fort of Bidar in India, transforms the metal surface, lending a unique deep blackness to the surface. CARE INSTRUCTIONS: Given the handmade nature of Bidriware objects, they tend to patina over time. Please keep your product away from moisture. Coconut oil or silver polish can be used to retain the product's lustre and black surface.
