Why We Like It
Udayagiri cutlery is known for its intricate carvings and fine proportions and is made by a few master craftspersons of the region. The craft probably originated during the time of the Quli Qutub Shah kings. The carvings are on wood sourced locally, from forests in and around Udayagiri, be it Nardi, Devadari, Bikki Chakka, Kaldi chakka or Palabarki. The most commonly used wood is from Nardi as it is very soft and easy to handle. Wooden logs are collected from nearby Durgampalli hills at Udayagiri. The product range includes spoons, forks, salad bowls, etc. Smaller spoons or pallis are made from Nardi and Bikki wood. Bigger spoons and forks are made out of harder wood called kaldi. They are used to serve curry and rice. The cutlery traces its influence to Persian motifs and forms making it an excellent gifting option as well!
