To preserve the beauty, durability, and Ayurvedic benefits of your Harishyam Arts Traditional Kansa Thali Plate, proper care is essential. Made from pure brass, known as Kansa in Ayurveda, this plate combines heritage craftsmanship with natural wellness properties, making it a valuable addition to your dining experience.
After use, rinse the plate with warm water to remove food residue promptly. Avoid soaking the plate for extended periods, as prolonged contact with moisture can cause oxidation or tarnishing. When cleaning, use a mild, natural detergent and a soft cloth or sponge. Harsh chemicals, abrasive scrubbers, or steel wool should be avoided to maintain the smooth surface and prevent scratches.
Dry the plate thoroughly using a soft, absorbent cloth immediately after washing. Water spots or residual moisture can dull the finish and lead to patina formation. While the gradual development of a patina is natural and often appreciated for its antique look, you can restore the plate’s original shine with gentle polishing if desired.
For polishing, create a natural paste using lemon juice and baking soda or tamarind pulp mixed with water. Apply this paste gently with a soft cloth in circular motions, rinse well, and dry completely. This method helps rejuvenate the brass while preserving its Ayurvedic qualities.
Avoid exposing the plate to extreme temperature changes, direct flame, or dishwasher cycles, as these can damage the metal and craftsmanship. Store the plate in a dry, cool place, ideally wrapped in a soft cloth to protect it from scratches and dust.
By following these simple care steps, your traditional Kansa snack plate will retain its elegance and health benefits, remaining a cherished part of your kitchen and dining rituals for years to come.
