The point of using Lorem Ipsum is that it has a more-or-less normal distribution of letters. On the other hand, we denounce with righteous indignation and dislike men who are so beguiled and demoralized by the charms of pleasure of the moment, so blinded by desire.

It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum.

Handcrafted Silver-Plated Chocolate Bowl https://hcypress.com/product/handcrafted-silver-plated-chocolate-bowl/ https://hcypress.com/product/handcrafted-silver-plated-chocolate-bowl/#respond Wed, 14 Feb 2018 09:47:00 +0000 https://elessi.nasatheme.com/?post_type=product&p=1258 Material: Copper body, tin-coated finish Technique: Persian Ghalamzani (hand-engraving), Siah-Qalam style Suggested Use: Decorative bowl, gift piece, centerpiece Packaging: HCypress signature wrap, ready for gifting]]>

A Quiet Elegance: Handcrafted Silver-Plated Chocolate Bowl

In a world that moves too fast, some objects invite us to pause.

This handcrafted silver-plated chocolate bowl is one such creation — not merely a container, but a keeper of culture, silence, and timeless artistry.

Entirely shaped from raw copper, its journey begins as a blank vessel — without form, without voice. Then, through the ancient Persian art of Qalamzani (hand engraving), it receives a soul.

Heated and filled with tar to absorb the rhythm of thousands of precise hammer strikes, the bowl becomes adorned with floral and arabesque motifs — patterns that have graced Persian mosques, manuscripts, and carpets for centuries.

Once engraved, the bowl is gently cleansed and plated with pure tin, giving it a luminous, silver-like surface that glows softly — never shouting, only shimmering.

The technique used here is known as Siah-Qalam (“Black Pen”) — where bold contrasts and intentional shadows tell stories through silence and form. Every line matters. Every detail speaks.

Whether used as a centerpiece, a treasure bowl, or a sacred gift, this is an object that doesn’t try to fit in.

It belongs — like poetry in a well-lit room.

Product Care Instructions

To preserve the beauty and integrity of your handcrafted silver-plated bowl:

  • Keep away from high humidity and moisture

  • Avoid direct exposure to high heat or sunlight

  • Clean gently with a soft, dry cloth — do not use abrasive cleaners or water

This bowl is a delicate piece of Persian craftsmanship. Proper care will ensure it remains a timeless part of your collection.

Handmade Persian Copper & Khatam Bowl https://hcypress.com/product/handmade-persian-copper-khatam-bowl/ https://hcypress.com/product/handmade-persian-copper-khatam-bowl/#respond Wed, 03 Jan 2018 04:05:55 +0000 https://elessi.nasatheme.com/?post_type=product&p=560

Handcrafted Copper and Khatamkari Bowl – A Masterpiece of Persian Art

In a fast-paced world, this handmade copper and Khatamkari bowl invites you to pause — to connect with culture, craftsmanship, and quiet elegance.

Carefully shaped from raw copper, the bowl begins its journey as a blank canvas. Then, through the ancient Persian art of Khatamkari inlay, it comes alive. Tiny hand-cut pieces of wood, bone, and metal are meticulously arranged into intricate geometric mosaics — each one telling a story of patience, balance, and tradition.

Created by master artisan Ahmad Ghaderi, this piece is not mass-produced. It is the result of over 400 precise, hand-guided steps, passed down through generations.

While designed to hold sweets or delicate treats, this decorative bowl holds something greater — a presence. Its round, harmonious shape reflects Persian architectural forms, and its soft energy brings timeless warmth to any home.

Whether in a minimalist space, classic setting, or art-filled shelf, it belongs. As a unique cultural gift, it speaks of meaning, intention, and beauty — glowing in thoughtful silence.

  • Body: 100% pure copper
  • Inlay: Hand-applied Khatamkari (wood, brass, bone — triangle-cut)
  • Method: Fully handmade
  • Dimensions: 43 × 22 cm
  • Weight: 1,210 g

 Style Compatibility:

  • Minimalist & Modern spaces (as a contrast piece)

  • Art studios or gallery corners
  • Offices or guest rooms with curated aesthetics

 Philosophy Behind the Piece:

In the story of The Little Prince, the rose was special — not because it was rare, but because someone had loved it.

This bowl, too, is like that rose.

It’s not just a functional object.

It’s something that’s been touched — really touched — by time, attention, and a dream.

In a world where everything is fast and forgettable, we need more things that are slow and unforgettable.

Like this.

Handmade Persian Copper Bonbon Dish https://hcypress.com/product/handmade-persian-copper-bonbon-dish/ https://hcypress.com/product/handmade-persian-copper-bonbon-dish/#respond Fri, 01 Dec 2017 09:34:36 +0000 https://elessi.nasatheme.com/?post_type=product&p=1237 Material: Copper body Technique: Persian Ghalamzani (hand-engraving), Siah-Qalam style Suggested Use: Decorative bowl, gift piece, centerpiece Packaging: HCypress signature wrap, ready for gifting]]> This handmade Persian copper bonbon dish features traditional hand engraving on a raw, untreated copper surface — free from artificial shine or coating.

Unlike tinned or lacquered versions, this <strong”>authentic copper dish preserves the natural warmth of the metal. Over time, it develops a rich patina, adding depth and character — just as tradition matures without losing its soul.

First shaped into a smooth, simple form, the dish is then engraved by hand using steel chisels and a fine hammer. The artisan fills the interior with warm pitch to protect the shape during engraving, then carefully removes it after the design is complete.

The engraved motifs, inspired by Persian nature, geometry, and symbolism, create a striking contrast between the copper’s bright glow and the dark etched lines.

This unique handcrafted bonbon dish is ideal as:
• A statement piece in a modern or traditional table setting
• A meaningful gift for lovers of culture and craftsmanship
• A decorative item showcasing Persian heritage and refinement

More than just a dish — it’s a cultural statement, crafted with patience, mastery, and timeless devotion to art.
