The story of Jagadhri's metal craftsmanship began over two centuries ago during the late Mughal era. As northern India witnessed the growth of trade and skilled industries, hereditary communities of metal artisans—including Thatheras and Kaseras—travelled from regions such as Rajasthan, Punjab, and the Gangetic plains of present-day Uttar Pradesh. Invited by local rulers and attracted by thriving trade routes, they settled in Jagadhri, bringing with them generations of expertise in shaping brass, copper, and kansa by hand.

Over time, these artisan families transformed Jagadhri into what is proudly known today as India's Brass City. Their knowledge was passed from one generation to the next—not through books, but through years of apprenticeship within their families. Every vessel reflected patience, precision, and centuries-old techniques, creating utensils that were both beautiful and built to last. Even today, that legacy lives on in the workshops of Jagadhri, where traditional craftsmanship continues to shape authentic brass, copper, and kansa cookware. At Peedhi, we are proud to carry this heritage forward, preserving the craftsmanship of the past while bringing it into the kitchens of today.
