Description
Ayurvedic wellness practitioners recommend serving and eating food from metallic vessels because of its antiseptic and anti-inflammatory properties. This contemporary take on traditional Kansa bowls is hand-hammered by tribal craftsmen using techniques that are centuries old.
Museum Story
The National Museum of Asian Art is a global resource for understanding Asian arts, cultures, and societies and their intersection with the United States. Opened in 1923 as the country's first national art museum, it now stewards one of the world's best collections of Asian art, which date from antiquity to the present, from China, Japan, Korea, South Asia, Southeast Asia, the Ancient Near East, and the Islamic world (including Central Asia, the Middle East, and North Africa). The museum also holds an important array of 19th- and early 20th-century American art of the Aesthetic Movement.
