For those of you using a 44-inch wide fabric, this guide suggests measurements for a standard L Size. Think of this as your starting point. If you're working with different sizes or fabric widths, just adjust up or down accordingly. Hope this helps!
When it comes to how much fabric you'll need, it really depends on the design. We'd recommend having a chat with your designer or tailor before you order, just to be on the safe side.

What is Dokra craft?
Dokra is a lost-wax metal casting technique from Chhattisgarh, Bengal, and Odisha. Artisans create hollow metal figurines, jewelry, and vessels using beeswax molds and bell metal. The craft is over 4,000 years old.
What metal is used in Dokra products?
The artisan shapes a clay core, wraps it with beeswax threads to form the design, then coats it with clay. The mold is fired. wax melts out, metal is poured into the cavity. When cooled, the outer clay is broken to reveal the casting.
Will the metal tarnish or change color?
Brass and copper naturally develop a patina over time. This is normal and considered desirable by many. Clean with lemon and salt paste to restore original shine if preferred.
Is this safe for food contact?
Brass and copper vessels have been used for food in India for centuries. For acidic foods, use a tin-coated interior. The product description notes food-safety where applicable.
How do I maintain Dokra products?
Wipe with a soft dry cloth after use. For deeper cleaning, use lemon juice and salt or a mild metal polish. Store in a dry place. Avoid abrasive scrubbers on finished surfaces.
Are these real Beads And Stones?
Beads and stones feel cool, smooth, and have noticeable weight. Glass beads are glossy and uniform. Stone beads have natural grain variations. Together they create a textured, layered feel.
How do I care for Beads And Stones products?
Wipe gently with a soft cloth. Avoid chemical cleaners. Store separately to prevent scratching against other jewelry or hard surfaces. Handle with care. natural stones can chip.
Will the color of Beads And Stones change over time?
Natural stones maintain their color. Some may develop a deeper tone with body contact and wear. Avoid prolonged sun exposure and chemical contact to preserve the original look.
Are Beads And Stones products hypoallergenic?
Natural stones are generally skin-safe. The metal setting may cause sensitivity in some people. Check the product page for the base metal used and choose accordingly.
How can I tell these are genuine Beads And Stones?
Natural stones have internal patterns, slight inclusions, and color variations. No two are exactly alike. Uniform, flawless appearance usually indicates synthetic alternatives.
