Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Thursday gifted Bidri work pair of 'Surahi' from Telangana to South African President Cyril Ramaphosa.
Bidrivase is a purely Indian innovation of 500-year-old Persian, exclusive to Bidar.
Bidrivase is cast with an alloy of Zinc, Copper and other non-ferrous metals. Pretty patterns are engraved on the casting and inlaid with pure Silver wire. The casting is then soaked in a solution mixed with the special soil of Bidar Fort which has special oxidising properties. This causes the Zinc alloy to turn into a lustrous black leaving the silver inlay intact to contrast stunningly with the black background.
