The lid on the top of the copper kitchenware helps to keep foods hot until they reach the table and can also seal moisture inside of dishes to keep them from drying out.

Artisan crafted in North India, the Donga Indian Serveware Soup Tureen Bowls are true Indian handicrafts. The outside of the bowls is made out of hammered copper for beauty, and the inside is lined with nonreactive, noncorrosive stainless steel to enhance durability and protect food. The lid on each soup tureen has an ornately engraved handle for added style. Serve everything from your grandmother's vegetable soup recipe to an exotic biryani dish in elegant style or give someone copper kitchen gifts that will last a lifetime !
