An essential kitchen item. Roll out fluffy chapattis, paranthas, puris and papads in style...
Hand-carved by a Jaipur master craftsman, the chakla is entirely carved from a single piece of stone (the best quality white marble), ensuring stability in use and long life. The smooth surface is slightly raised in the centre; helping the roti to rotate while it is being rolled, allowing you to achieve perfect circles!
A petalled motif that decorates the rim, and in keeping with tradition, the bottom centre of the Chakla is marked with a flower that enhances its beauty and is considered auspicious.
The belan is carved out of a single piece of seasoned Babool wood. Babool is known for its medicinal properties, and has several uses in Ayurveda. Its oil has anti-bacterial and anti-fungal properties. The shape and proportions of the belan make the process of rolling out rotis a pleasurable experience. Its handles are carved so as to have a massaging effect on the hands.The design of the Belan echoes the motif on the Chakla and the two work beautifully together.
