Koftgari/Damascening : Rajasthan is home to flamboyant crafts and is equally known as
the land of dazzling valour. Similarly, the craft of Koftgari / Koftgiri, practised by the 5th
generation of the Sikligar community, is known for being both aesthetic and resilient. The
technique involves carefully cutting grooves or channels into the metal surface and then
inserting and hammering in the gold or silver wire, creating a decorative pattern.
The community has kept the legacy of crafting everlasting weapons & armours for
the warrior
clan. The handles and casings of these weapons showcase an exquisite inlaid or
beaten ornamentation, which also communicates the quality of the armour.
This is popularly known as Damascening or Koftgari.
