Our story
NKV Handicrafts was founded in 1975 on Chinnakadai Street, Salem — a lane that has smelled of molten brass for over a century. Our founder learned the craft from his father. Today, his sons and grandsons still hammer, polish and engrave every lamp that leaves the shop.
We don't mass-produce. We don't outsource. Every kuthu vilakku, every pooja thali, every return gift is finished by hand — because that's the only way brass sings.
Voices
"The kuthu vilakku pair I ordered is stunning — the finish is museum quality. Dispatched to me in three days."
"Ordered return gifts for my daughter's wedding. Every guest asked where they were made. Worth every rupee."
"Third order from NKV. Their brass has that authentic Salem weight and shine you can't find on marketplaces."
