Soapstone Vessel, also known as kalchattis are carved out of soapstone,
a naturally occurring soft stone. Soapstone has been in use in India for
thousands of years for carving and for making vessels. This hand-crafted
soapstone kitchenware is carefully hand chiselled from a block of soapstone by
traditional artisans of Tamil Nadu. This carving art is passed on from one
generation to another. The soapstone vessel retains the natural flavour,
original aroma and taste of the food stored in it.
