Indian Brass Chapati Box

Timeless craft, shaped by heritage
£55.00
Tax included.

Once used to store traditional Indian chapati, this vintage brass box is now a refined keepsake vessel for jewellery, trinkets, or treasured mementos. Handcrafted with intricate detailing and a warm patina, each piece carries a story of craft and cultural legacy.

The Indian Brass Chapati Box is a rare artifact of everyday artistry — a handcrafted vessel once used in Indian households to store fresh chapati. Today, it finds new purpose as a sculptural accent or a beautiful holder for jewellery and keepsakes.

Each piece is meticulously handmade from solid brass, featuring traditional embossed motifs and aged metalwork that reflect generations of craftsmanship. Its unlacquered finish allows it to evolve gracefully with time — polish for a lustrous glow, or let it deepen into a rich, natural patina that tells its own story.

Perfectly sized for tabletops or shelving, this one-of-a-kind piece adds cultural depth and golden warmth to any setting. Hand-selected by Narrated Home, each chapati box is unique — a small treasure born from the beauty of imperfection and time.

Pairs well with

“Each mark tells of hands that shaped, cooked, and created — a vessel of stories reborn for the modern home.”
