A charming small Indian brass chapati box dating to the 1930s, traditionally used for storing and serving freshly made chapatis. Crafted from brass with hand-finished detailing, the box features a hinged lid secured by a decorative clasp and is topped with an elegant ring handle mounted on a floral backplate. Its compact proportions and warm aged patina make it both a practical storage piece and an attractive decorative accent.

Chapati boxes were a familiar feature in Indian kitchens and dining rooms, helping to keep flatbreads warm and protected before serving. This example displays the honest wear and rich character that only decades of use can produce, with subtle variations in colour and surface patination enhancing its authenticity. Whether used for storage, display, or as part of a collection of traditional Indian brassware, it offers a wonderful glimpse into everyday domestic life in early twentieth-century India.
