Jaipur artisans craft silver‑plated tableware for BRICS summit guests

Jaipur’s traditional artisans have been commissioned to create a unique set of silver‑plated tableware for the forthcoming BRICS summit. The pieces, ranging from plates and bowls to serving trays, are being hand‑crafted using locally sourced metal and then coated with a thin layer of silver to achieve a lustrous finish.
The design blends classic Rajasthani motifs—such as intricate jaali patterns and floral embossing—with a contemporary silhouette suitable for an international diplomatic gathering. Each item is polished to a mirror shine, reflecting both the city’s heritage and the summit’s high‑profile ambience.
Officials say the initiative showcases India’s rich craft legacy on a global stage, while also providing a boost to the local artisan community in Rajasthan. Production is slated to conclude a week before the summit’s opening, ensuring the table settings are ready for the arrival of world leaders.
The silver‑plated collection will be displayed on the main banquet tables, offering delegates a glimpse of Jaipur’s centuries‑old craftsmanship combined with modern elegance.
