About these pieces

Bowls for serving, for the pooja thali and for the centre table. Sizes run from 1 inch katoris to 11.5 inch serving bowls, and weights from 110 g to 1.5 kg.

Decide the use before the design. A small katori of about 4 inch is for dal, sabzi or prasad. A 7 inch katora works for dry fruit, sweets or fruit on a table. Silver plated bowls are bought mostly for gifting and serving dry snacks. Aluminium bowls are light and are usually decor or dry-serving pieces. If the bowl will hold food every day, read the listing for the metal and whether the inside is plain, plated or lined.

Plain brass should not hold sour or salty food for long, such as curd, pickle or tamarind dishes. For those, use steel or a kalai (tin) lined piece. Wash by hand and dry at once; a dishwasher dulls both brass and silver plate.

Good to know

Can I eat from a brass bowl every day?
Many families do, for dry and non-sour food. Avoid keeping curd, pickle or sour dishes in plain brass, and wash and dry the bowl after each use.
Which bowl is used for pooja?
A small brass katori of about 4 inch is common for prasad, kumkum, rice or water on the thali. Check the diameter on the listing so it fits your plate.
Can you burn things in a brass bowl?
A thick brass bowl can hold a camphor tablet or dhoop on a bed of ash or sand. Thin, plated or aluminium bowls should not be used for burning.
How do I care for a silver plated bowl?
Wipe with a soft cloth after use and wash by hand with mild soap. Do not scrub with steel wool or lemon and salt, which wear the plating.
