Antique Kaansa Hand-Carved Floral Tray

Exquisite Vintage Kaansa Tray | Rare Artisanal Carving

A stunning example of traditional Indian metal artistry, this antique Kaansa (bell-metal) tray features an elegant organic silhouette inspired by floral and leaf forms. The interior and border are richly hand-engraved with dense Mughal-style foliage and blooming motifs, showcasing remarkable detail and skilled craftsmanship.

Kaansa — a revered alloy used since ancient times for its durability and healing qualities — gives this piece a warm golden-bronze tone with a naturally aged patina, enhancing its luxurious heritage appeal.

Unlike regular trays, this piece has a unique sculptural shape, making it a functional object as well as a decorative art collectible. Its floral-vine carvings add character, depth and authenticity rooted in centuries-old design tradition.
