Old Tikka boxes from India – small treasures with a story.
These old Tikka boxes come from various regions of India and were traditionally used to store Kumkum powder – the red pigment applied during religious ceremonies and rituals as a symbol of blessing and devotion. Each box tells its own story: handcrafted from brass, copper, or wood, and often adorned with fine engravings, ornaments, or enamel details, they embody the beauty and skill of India’s traditional craftsmanship.
With their authentic patina and traces of time, these boxes are not only beautiful collectibles but also add a soulful accent to modern interiors – perfect as a small jewelry holder, spice container, or simply as an object with character.
Each piece is unique, with its own shape, size, and design, reflecting the rich cultural diversity of India.
