Ramesh Soni

Ramesh Soni comes from a family of brass workers in Jodhpur. His grandfather supplied vessels and utensils to households across the region; his father shifted toward decorative work as demand changed. Ramesh trained under his father from age fourteen and now runs a small workshop with two assistants. He works primarily in brass and occasionally in copper, producing vessels, figurines and decorative objects using sand-casting, hand-hammering and lathe-finishing techniques. His work has a clean, substantial quality — not overly ornate, not minimal, but well-proportioned and solid.

The Making Process

Ramesh uses the lost-wax and sand-casting method for complex shapes, and hand-hammers simpler forms from brass sheet. After casting, pieces are filed, polished on a lathe, and finished with a lacquer coating or left to develop a natural patina. Engraved details are added with hand tools.
