Give yourself and your loved ones the gift of health since Kansa is the best metal to eat food from.
Kansa thali is a traditional Indian dinnerware set made from kansa or bronze, an alloy of copper and tin. Ayurveda mentions the benefits of eating from Kansa. This is also good for cooking due to its therapeutic quality (galib, Barve et el, 2011.). The formulations of bronze of ‘Pittala’ are beneficial to stay away from diseases.
This well-crafted design from P-TAL is a durable dinnerware that is a must to host a beautiful get-together for your guests. The thali can be teamed with bowls and spoons to make it complete.
Kansa or Kamsya, as written in many books, gives a sharp sound, is soft, smooth to the touch and clear from impurities. The Thatheras are well versed in this knowledge and let us know if asked.
There are ways for you to test the authenticity of Kansa. For example, it is a brittle metal, and if beaten with another metal/ material, the product acts as a singing bowl.
