A samovar is a traditional Kashmiri kettle used to brew, boil and serve tea and kahwa. Kashmiri samovars are made of copperware with engraved or embossed calligraphic motifs.The process of making of a copper goes through many artisans who are specialized in a particular technique. The process involves Khar ? the smith, Naqash ? the engraver, Zarcod ? the gilder, Roshangar ? the polisher and Charakgar ? the cleaner or finisher. In fact, specific localities or Mohallas like Roshangar-Mohalla are named after these professions, where these artisans still carry out their craft practice. Our Copper samavar has motifs of chinar leaves all around body and tomb. Chinar represents kashmiris most famous tree Platanus orientalis, the Old World sycamore or Oriental plane, is a large, deciduous tree of the Platanaceae family, growing to 30 m or more, and known for its longevity and spreading crown.
