HOW IT'S MADE

This dessert bowl is skillfully hand-carved and handcrafted by Indian artisans from white Makrana marble, renowned for its use in the building of the renowned Taj Mahal in Agra. These bowls stay cool even in warm temperatures! 

This artisanal set of dessert bowls is crafted using the ancient technique of stone turning. The exquisite white colours and patterns on the surface are due to the natural stone that was extensively employed to build the product. Marble is one of the most prized crafting stones, with numerous qualities unparalleled by other stone crafts. White marble became the preferred stone of Mughal emperors, particularly Shah-Jahan, who ordered the Taj Mahal to be built with the same premium quality white Makrana marble from Rajasthan. In the craft of stone turning, having skilled hands with geometrical precision is always a top priority. The artisans who carry out this process are known as turners in the field of stone turning.

During the British era in India, such wonder-workers were so rare that they were nicknamed the "Mystery of the Turners Guild." Even today, stone turning is exclusively relied on to create high-quality handcrafted goods. Its very process makes it impossible to fit in an industrial mass-production scenario. If that isn't the definition of artisanal, we don't know what is!
