Where we're starting
Two masala dabbas, both 304 stainless steel — the grade that holds up to salt, acid and years of washing without pitting or rusting.
The Square Dabba
8 × 8 inch · 9 bowls · matte finish
Nine compartments under a clear lid, so you can see every spice before you open it. Sits flat in a cupboard.

How we choose
What we hold to
The same three rules apply to everything we put the name on, whatever the category.
We tell you what it's made of
Grade, thickness, origin. Most listings in this market don't say. Ours do, and we hold our suppliers to certificates rather than assurances.
Made in India
By people who have made these things for generations, in the workshops they've always come from.
Meant to outlast us
No coatings to flake, nothing designed to be replaced. It should reach the next kitchen, not the bin.
