Dokra is a traditional metal casting technique that originates from ancient India, particularly practiced by tribal communities. It involves creating intricate designs using a lost-wax process, where a wax model is coated with clay and then heated to remove the wax, leaving a mold for molten metal. The resulting artifacts are often made from brass and feature unique motifs inspired by nature and folklore. Dokra items include jewelry, figurines, and decorative pieces, showcasing the craftsmanship and artistic heritage of the artisans. This art form not only reflects cultural identity but also supports local economies through handmade products.
