Indians cracked spice storage generations ago.

The masala dabba is not a novelty kitchen item. It is a system. Seven bowls, one lid, no fumbling through a cupboard of mismatched jars. Every Indian kitchen has one. Every cook who has used one wonders how they ever lived without it. This does not belong in a culture aisle. It belongs next to your hob.

Choose your size

  • Classic 8": 21.5 cm across, the everyday workhorse for a full spice rotation

Details

  • Solid brass, hand-etched in Moradabad, India

The Vaarsa Way

handcrafted | beautiful | thoughtful

Brass Care

Keeping your food grade brass pieces from Vaarsa London is easier than you think. Simple steps you can use:

📌Start by gently emptying the piece and hand-washing the residue.

📌Then, for the deep clean mix Pitambri powder with a little water to make a thick paste. Apply it on the brass in gentle circular motions. Let it sit for a minute then rub again, especially over tarnished spots. It’s normal if the paste darkens, that means it’s working.

📌Rinse thoroughly with water and dry completely using a soft microfibre cloth before you use it again.

And that’s it. Your brass, cleaned, cared for, and glowing like new.
