Handmade Copper Bowls

Indian Kitchen utensils were considered sophisticated many years ago. Utensils are the basic things needed in a kitchen. Mostly Indian Utensils are made of stainless steel, brass and copper. Copper ware are preferred because it is durable and it has excellent characteristics. Copper cookware is one of the best heat conductors for all of your cooking. Heat is conducted evenly to the copper pan, allowing the preparation of a dish with less energy regardless of stove top type. These kitchen utensils make a very distinct yet simple kitchenware. In Indian culture, the bowls and plates of the rich are made out of silver, while it is either clay or brass for the commoners.

Copper Utensils are good for Health. Copper has been used as a medicine for thousands of years including the treatment of chest wounds and purifying of drinking water. More recently, research has indicated that copper helps prevent inflammation in arthritis and similar diseases. Research is going on into anti-ulcer and anti-inflammatory medicines containing copper, and its use in radiology and for treating convulsions and epilepsy. Although there is no epidemiological evidence that copper can prevent arthritis, there have been claims that the wearing of copper bangles does alleviate the symptoms.

Copper Drinkwares

Copperware have antimicrobial properties. Copper utensils and cookware helped to prevent the spread of diseases. In many tests it showed that 99.9% of the bacteria on copper alloy surfaces (with 65% or greater copper content) were eliminated within 2 hours of exposure. According to research at Southampton University in the U.K., MRSA microbes remain alive on stainless steel surfaces for up to three days, whereas the same microbes on a copper surface are eliminated within 90 minutes.
