Keeping magnificent metal craft of Bidar city alive

Bidriware is made from an alloy of copper and zinc. Zinc content offers alloy dark black colour. 

Bidriware articles are highly sought after.

When you use the word metal then delicate is not word which comes to our mind.

Yet, Bidriware articles are exquisitely & intricately carved. At a time when this craft - a metal handcraft that was developed in the 14th century during Bahamani Sultans period in Bidar city — is losing the popularity, 64-year-old Shah Rasheed Ahmed Quadri, Bidriware craftsman, stands with pride. 

For Rasheed, Bidriware is the thing his family has been involved with for several years.

Speaking to a reputed newspaper, he says he is the 3rd generation from family to be involved in making & sale of Bidriware articles after his grandfather Mohammed Quadri & his father Mustafa Quadri.

“My father was against me that I continued it since he did not earn a lot from this skill. But I was excited on learning craft. In year 1970, after completing matriculation, I started learning it from father,” Rasheed says.

“Though I have led a satisfactory life in the last 50 years & earned name & fame, I live in rented house as I don’t earn much from craft. Both my sons are disinterested in continuing the craft,” Rasheed says.

He earns Rs 30,000-35,000 per month. He employs 02 permanent workers & pays them Rs.300 on per day basis.

If he gets bulk orders then he works with the other artisans. 

It takes between 2 hours & 20 days, depending on intricacy, to make the Bidriware articles.

Small articles such as keychain could be made within 02 hours. Rasheed sells articles in exhibitions across the country and in foreign nations as well.

Bidriware techniques are influenced by the Persian art

It was first brought to the nation India by Sufi Khwaja Hasan Chisti in form of utensils. Art form developed in Bidar city was a blend of art from Turkey, Persia & local styles that led to matchless style of its own. 

Making Bidriware involves eight-stage procedure moulding, smoothening, designing by chisels, engraving, pure silver in laying, smoothing for one more time, buffing & finally oxidising by soil & ammonium chloride.

It is said that the soil of Bidar city is special. Some artisans feel that soil is away from sunlight & rain for years & therefore it has good oxidizing properties.

Others believe that part of fort from where soil is brought was mine & therefore metal extracts in soil make it unique.

Artisans say that quality of Bidri earth is important & real art lies in testing mud. It is tasted by artisans with tongues.

Another vital thing is that all process, starting from the casting to oxidation, is done by the hands & therefore it is time-consuming & highly expensive pursuit.

Some years ago, Rasheed trained 20 folks under government scheme. Today, there are 250 registered artisans & 100 unregistered ones who make articles out of Bidriware.
