Kansa Tumbler — The Vessel

The Metal

Before the periodic table, there was Vedic alchemy.
Somewhere between 3,000 and 5,000 years ago, metallurgists working within the Ayurvedic tradition made a discovery: copper and tin, combined at a precise 78:22 ratio, didn't just form an alloy. They formed something new. A third substance with its own molecular vibration, its own temperature, its own relationship with the human body. They called it Kansa, the healing metal.

The ratio matters. Deviate from it and you have ordinary bronze. Hold it, and Kansa becomes bioconductive: capable of drawing Pitta (excess heat and acidity) out of the skin and body on contact. This is why the grey appears on your skin during a Kansa massage. Not tarnish. Not damage. Acid, leaving.

True Kansa cannot be manufactured. It must be tempered — heated to a red glow, hammered, quenched, heated again — in a cycle that can only be done by hand. This process lives within a small number of hereditary smith clans in India, passed down through generations who never wrote the knowledge down because they never needed to. Their hands carry it.

The result is a metal that has outlasted every trend in wellness because it was never a trend. While the world moved to stainless steel and plastic, Kansa stayed, patient and hand-hammered, waiting to re-enter the rituals it was made for.

Our tools are bringing it back.

Kansa has been used for centuries as tableware and is known for its health benefits. Your Kansa tableware is 100% food-safe. To maintain your Kansa, hand wash only using mild soap and soft sponge and Pitambari powder (metal polish) diluted with water for deep clean. Wipe dry immediately or else water residues will leave stains. Do not use abrasive cleaning pads or steel scrubbers on your Kansa tableware.
