SILVER CITY CUTTACK<\/h1>\n<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

Cuttack is known as the Silver City, by witnessing its Tarakashi (silver filigree) craft. In fact, it is the silver filigree work that has put\u00a0in the\u00a0world\u00a0map. The city is home to nearly 2000 Tarakashi artisans who had inherited the craftsmanship from their forefathers. The filigree workshops can be found at Dolomundai, Nayasarak, Choudhary Bazaar, Balu Bazaar and BaniaSahi, among other places in the city. The craft, which dates back to 500 years, includes creating thin strands of silver wires that are used to make a wide range of jewellery, utility items and exquisite showpieces and utensils that are marketed globally. Artisans\u00a0bend\u00a0these silver wires into different sizes and create designs out of them. The silver wires are of extremely high quality. Ornaments like necklaces, ear pendants, brooches, anklets, hairpins, bangles and those worn by the Odissi dancers are some of the items manufactured. Some artisans have even made replicas of the TajMahal and the\u00a0Konark\u00a0Temple in Tarakashi. The beauty of Tarakashi craft can be seen during the famed Durga Puja of Cuttack when, the idol of the Goddess is put up against a massive backdrop that is designed with only silver filigree. Every Durga Puja pandal uses backdrops made up of silver filigree during the festival.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div><\/div>
