Bengali wedding & ceremony gifting

A Bengali wedding runs on trays. The tattva sent between the two houses is literally a procession of decorated trays of gifts, and the boron dala meets the groom at the gate. A silver-plated tray shop two minutes from the park is, quite naturally, in this business.

Matched to the occasion

Tattva & boron dala

Worked trays, urlis and mirror trays that carry the gifts and then survive them: the tray itself becomes part of the tattva.

Annaprashan

The first-rice ceremony calls for a bowl and spoon worth keeping. Engraved bowls and small lidded dishes fit exactly.

Upanayan

For the sacred-thread ceremony: small idols, a worked conch, a frame for the day's photograph.

Jamai sasthi & Bijoya

Serving pieces and dry-fruit stands, made for occasions whose language is food.

An oval mirror tray with silver floral rim — **Mirror tray**A tattva tray that shows the gift twice.

An antique silver urli filled with red roses — **Urli**Flowers, sweets or sindoor: the all-purpose ceremonial bowl.

A worked gold and silver conch — **Shankh**The conch, worked in gold and silver plate.

Tattva season means quantity: sets of trays, dressed and matched. The shop takes these orders with advance notice, so bring your list early.
