About the Product
In many Indian homes, the day begins with simple, comforting rituals—pouring water, lighting a lamp, savoring quiet moments. The Copper Apple Handa fits right into this rhythm. More than just a water vessel, it's a beautiful nod to tradition and wellness, designed to make every sip special.
Why copper? Because it's not just about looks. Copper has been cherished for centuries for its natural ability to purify water and promote balance within the body. Ayurveda highlights copper's role in harmonizing the three doshas—Vata, Pitta, and Kapha—helping you feel centered and refreshed. Using the Copper Apple Handa daily is an invitation to slow down and reconnect with age-old wisdom, turning routine hydration into a sacred ritual.
This handa is handcrafted with love and care, made from 100% pure copper with a polished, apple-shaped design that's as functional as it is beautiful. Its rounded form is sturdy and comfortable to hold, perfect for everything from your morning tamra jal to special pooja ceremonies.

Frequently Asked Questions
How to Clean Your Copper Vessel
Copper Utensils
- 🍋 Lemon & Salt: Rub a lemon half dipped in salt on the surface. Leave for 2–3 minutes. Rinse and dry immediately.
- 🌿 Tamarind Paste: Apply tamarind paste, rub gently, rinse, and dry. Excellent for heavy tarnish.
- 🥶 Vinegar & Salt: Mix equal parts, apply with a soft cloth, leave for 5 minutes, rinse well, and dry.
- 🍼 Daily Rinse: Rinse with warm water after each use. Dry immediately — never air-dry or leave water inside.
With Lacquer/Meena Coating
Lacquer or Meena (enamel resin) coating gives your copper vessel its beautiful colour and design. With the right care, this coating stays vibrant for years — but it needs gentler handling than plain copper.
- 🧹 Wipe Gently: Use a soft, damp microfibre cloth. Wipe the outer surface lightly in circular motions. Never scrub.
- 🫧 Mild Soap if Needed: Add a drop of mild dish soap to lukewarm water. Dip a soft sponge and gently clean the outside. Avoid applying pressure on coated areas.
- 💧 Rinse Carefully: Rinse with slow-running lukewarm water. Do not submerge or soak.
- 🧺 Pat Dry Immediately: Use a soft, dry cloth. Pat gently — do not rub or wring. Never air-dry, as moisture can weaken the bond between the coating and copper.
- ☀️ Avoid Direct Sunlight: Prolonged UV exposure can fade Meena colours and crack resin coatings. Store in shade or a cupboard.
- 🌞 Keep Away from Heat: Do not place near stoves or in hot environments. Extreme heat can soften and peel the lacquer.
- 👁️ Handle with Care: Coating can chip on impact. Place on soft surfaces and avoid dropping. Never stack without padding between vessels.
- 📈 Dry Storage: Store in a cool, dry place. Humidity trapped inside can cause the coating to lift from the edges over time.
- 🧹 Clean Gently & Often: Light, regular wiping prevents buildup. Heavy scrubbing to remove old grime can cause more damage than the grime itself.
- 🌸 Polish Uncoated Areas Only: If the vessel has uncoated copper parts, polish only those areas with lemon & salt. Keep polishing agents away from the coated design.
Note:
- ❌ Never use a dishwasher: Heat and detergent can strip the coating completely.
- ❌ Never use lemon, tamarind, or vinegar on coated surfaces: Acids can damage or dissolve the lacquer.
- ❌ Never scrub with steel wool, abrasive sponges, or rough cloths.
- ❌ Never soak coated vessels: Prolonged exposure to water can lift the coating from the edges.
- ❌ Never use bleach, chemical cleaners, or polishing powders on coated areas.
- ❌ Never microwave or heat the vessel: Overheating can damage the coating and may release fumes.
