Kansa the sacred bronze alloy of copper and tin has held a special place in South Asian culture for more than 5,000 years. Ayurvedic texts praise kansa vessels for their believed benefits to digestion and overall wellbeing. Vedic tradition regards bronze as the most auspicious metal for eating and offering food to the divine. VMI's Bronze Handcrafted collection honours this ancient legacy with a range of kansa katoras, bowls, and vessels shaped by skilled craftspeople using traditional handcrafting techniques. Each piece is made from premium-quality bronze alloy with a naturally warm, golden tone that deepens beautifully with use. Whether used as a traditional eating bowl, a ritual offering vessel, or a meaningful gift for a wedding or housewarming, kansa from VMI connects the recipient to one of humanity's oldest and most refined metalworking traditions. Nepal's Patan district has been a centre of bronze craft for over a millennium VMI is proud to carry that legacy forward in every piece we make.
