Brass Chapati Box – Ca 1900

Brass chapati boxes were used in the old days of India as lunch boxes for packaging chapati (wheat bread) & naan bread in Rajasthan. Chapati boxes come in all sizes, but are generally round in shape with a hand engraved pattern on the top inspired by geometric motifs found in Indian temples.

These beautifully characterful boxes provide a stylish alternative to single use plastic for use as lunch boxes or for food presentation at a dinner party. 

As our Indian boxes are vintage dating between 50 & 150 years old, they usually have some small marks and dents from original use which adds to their character.
