Handcrafted brass metal tribal dokra ankle bangle. This dokra ankle bangle is crafted through the ancient lost wax casting technique by skilled artisans, ensuring each piece is unique and authentic. The Dokra system of metal casting is said to be the oldest form of metal casting and is technically known as the ‘cire perdue’ or lost wax process. The technique of casting revolves around the replacement of wax with molten metal by the traditional hollow casting method.
Care
Wipe with a soft cotton cloth when needed or wash the product with Pitambari or brasso powder, readily available in the nearest general store. One can also use lemon water, tamarind or vinegar.
Colour
Slight difference in colour from the visible product image is possible. Read more.
Somnath Karmakar is a member of the Bikna Co-operative, a craft hub in Shiplagram in the Bankura district of Bengal housing nearly eighty-one families. Somnath is a 23-year-old man who is well educated and versed in technology and photography. He represents the community in their marketing efforts by sharing images of products and coordinating with customers. He explains how each figurine takes 5-7 days to craft, graft, cast, bake, dry, and polish. Usually the finest craftsmen make the design first, after which the women sculpt the basic structure with mud. The men generally work with fire and complete the steps of casting and baking the idol. Their sales take place through annual fairs organized by the central and state governments, exhibitions facilitated by NGOs, and orders from Biswa Bangla (the government craft shop). Dokra is a 5,000-year-old craft.

Dokra Metal Craft
Dhokra art consists metal like brass and unique in its design. The Dhokra metal casting technique employs the Lost-wax technique that was used earlier by the Mohenjo-daro craftsmen to cast the bronze figurine of a dancing girl some 4500 years ago.
For those of you using a 44-inch wide fabric, this guide suggests measurements for a standard L Size. Think of this as your starting point. If you're working with different sizes or fabric widths, just adjust up or down accordingly. Hope this helps!
When it comes to how much fabric you'll need, it really depends on the design. We'd recommend having a chat with your designer or tailor before you order, just to be on the safe side.

Women often wear anklets as accessories, but there is also a scientific justification for this. Wearing an anklet could be an excellent treatment for you if you frequently have leg discomfort, numbness, tingling, or general weakness in your legs. An anklet can be especially beneficial if your leg pain stems from your lower back and radiates through your buttocks to your sciatic nerve.
An ankle bracelet worn on the left foot is considered a charm or talisman by most civilizations. These anklets served as amulets to guard the wearer from illnesses and unfavourable omens.
