Kanira Vintage Brass Peacock Kumkum Box:
A beautifully crafted vintage brass peacock kumkum box, designed in an elegant floral form with a finely sculpted peacock handle at the center. This piece is both functional and decorative—an exquisite example of traditional Indian craftsmanship from 60–70 years ago.
The box opens into multiple petal-shaped compartments, traditionally used to store kumkum, haldi, rice, sindoor, or sacred threads during rituals and ceremonies. Each section is delicately engraved with floral motifs, and the central peacock adds a regal and symbolic touch, representing grace, beauty, and prosperity.
With time, the brass has developed a soft, warm patina that enhances its vintage character and authenticity. Pieces like this were often part of personal vanity sets or puja collections, making them highly collectible today.
Compact yet visually striking, this box works beautifully as a functional ritual item or as a decorative accent on a console, dressing table, or altar.
