Description: Bidriware is an ancient folk art form from Bidar district of Karnataka in India. This is a laborious and intricate form of art which involves various specific steps and ingredients to shape the blackened alloy of zinc and copper and finally embedded with thin silver inlays. Here a man is seen chiselling the silver inlay on the alloy bar that is yet to go through a few more steps to become the polished finished product.
