Brass metal craft encompasses a wide range of techniques, including casting, forging, engraving, and embossing. Artisans employ a combination of hand tools and traditional methods to shape raw brass into exquisite works of art. Intricate designs, motifs, and patterns are meticulously crafted onto brassware, ranging from utensils and sculptures to decorative items and religious artifacts.
