Why Bell metal products ?

Our products are made by good quality Bell metal. Our cooking utensils like, unpolished uruli and cheenachatty are made by high quality bell metal,ie,’vellodu’ . Our lamps are made by bell metal and not by brass. You can see the difference in the colour. Utensils in Vellodu looks like white shade and good quality bell metal lamps are reddish colour. Brass looks like yellow. Bell Metal is the combination of Copper and Tin and brass is the combination of copper and zinc. And also we are following de-waxing method in casting and not the box casting method. Because of the metal quality and casting method bell metal products will be costly than of brass.
