Buy Copper & Brass Rakhi Online For Raksha Bandhan 2026
A copper or brass Rakhi is the one that outlives the festival. Metal does not fray or fade the way thread does, so a well-made one sits on your brother's wrist on the day and then carries on as a pendant or a small thing he keeps on his desk. This is iTokri's copper and brass Rakhi collection for Raksha Bandhan 2026: copper enamel Rakhis fired in colour, Dokra brass Rakhis that arrive in a little Banaras wooden doll box, and German silver sets. All of it is in stock and ships from our own base in Gwalior.
What Is a Copper Enamel Rakhi?
It is a copper Rakhi with colour fused into it, not painted on top. Fine glass powder is laid onto the copper in a pattern, then fired at high heat until the glass melts and bonds to the metal as a smooth, coloured surface. That fired-glass finish is why the colour does not chip off easily and why the copper underneath does not tarnish. On iTokri most of these are made by Ekibeki, and many are built to be worn again as a pendant.

How a Copper Enamel Rakhi Is Made
If you have wondered why enamel work costs what it does, the answer is the firing. The glass powder is laid on by hand, then taken to roughly 700 to 900 degrees Celsius, hot enough for the glass to turn liquid and settle into the copper. Cool it, and that colour is locked in for good. Then it is done again for the next colour. There is no shortcut, which is exactly why no two pieces come out identical.
A Reusable Rakhi Your Brother Can Keep
Because these are metal and not thread, the reusable Rakhis in this collection are made to have a second life. The copper enamel Rakhis come off the wrist and go on as a pendant. The Dokra beads Rakhi sit fine on a shelf, still in their little Banaras doll box. You are giving your brother something he is not going to quietly bin the next morning.
