Khaliya Tray – A Timeless Northern Indian Classic
The vintage Indian Khaliya tray, traditionally known as a Khaliya (or Khalia), originates from rural areas of Rajasthan and parts of northern India. These trays were originally used for kneading and mixing dough for making chapatis (flatbreads) or other traditional breads. They were also sometimes used for washing grains or preparing food in large quantities during community or family gatherings.
Their handcrafted nature and aged patina reflect their utilitarian use in traditional Indian kitchens and the skilled workmanship of the region.
These versatile trays can be styled and utilized in a variety of ways offering endless possibilities for your home:
