Teak Chapati Board From Rajasthan - 19th Century
This beautifully patinated teak chapati board originates from Rajasthan and dates to the 19th century. Hand-carved from a solid piece of teak, it was traditionally used for rolling chapatis and other everyday food preparation, forming an essential part of domestic life in rural Indian households.
