A small solid brass jar with its own brass spoon, boxed and ready to give. It began life as a ghee pot, the piece we made for Maunika Gowardhan's cookbook launch celebrating regional Indian cuisine. Ghee is one use. It is really a keeper for anything worth keeping close.

Fill it with ghee, honey, salt, sugar, chutney, spices or dry fruit. Keep it on the table, beside the hob, or on a dressing table for small things. Brass is a naturally antimicrobial copper alloy, and it darkens beautifully with use.

Comes with a pure brass spoon in ready-to-gift packaging, which may vary from the images (image updating soon)

Size & Material

Size: approx 7.5 cm and 10 cm height
Material: 100% Pure Brass, gleaming gold color

Care Instructions

Hand wash with mild soap and dry immediately to avoid water spots. Do not use a dishwasher or abrasive materials. Over time, the brass may develop a vintage patina, but a simple brass cleaner will restore its shine if desired.

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.
