BRASS WORK IN PAKISTAN



Brass utensils once used to be common in household uses, specially in the villages. Now these have slowly and gradually vanished due to their high cost, but brassware handicrafts can still be found displaying master craft of the artisans. They make decorative plates, vases, bowls and similar other things in exquisite designs reminiscent of the great Mughal period. Products of polished brass have their own appeal but it is the engraved work in colourful and artistic patterns that is most prized. In Peshawar, brass work is done on many things like household utensils of daily use to decoration pieces. In Hindko (one of the much spoken languages in NWFP), brass is called as "Mis," and the individuals who work on this metal are called "Misgar." In Peshawar a big market is allocated for this handicraft, known as, "Misgaran Bazaar," that means, bazaar of brass workers. People of NWFP give household utensils to their daughters in "Dowry," that are made of brass and are beautifully carved. These include water storage and cooking utensils
