| SILVER
FILIGREE ( TARAKASI ) |
 |
| The Silver Filigree
work of Orissa, locally known as Tarakashi, is a distinctive
art form of great intricacy and delicacy. This exquisite
rendition of silver craft has been mastered by our talented
craftsmen. The process consists of drawing silver through
a series of consecutively smaller holes to produce fine
strands of wire. These wires are then made into various
shapes by defty hands of our craftsmen by bending them
into different designs and soldering them with pincer
and scissors. Some of the famous filigree products of
this work are jewellery of infinite beauty, small boxes,
dainty floral kumkum containers, leaf patterned purses,
perfume containers, hairpins, armbands and really delicate
necklaces. |
