The Tibetan Dhupur Rice Pot, traditionally used in Himalayan households and monasteries, is a bronze or copper vessel known for its durability and unique bulbous shape that efficiently retains heat, making it ideal for slow-cooking rice or tsampa porridge in high-altitude regions. Rooted in Tibetan and Nepalese craftsmanship, particularly from the Newar artisans of the Kathmandu Valley, these pots often feature hand-hammered textures and decorative motifs symbolizing prosperity and abundance. Historically, the Dhupur pot was a prized kitchen item, passed down generations, and in some villages, it was even used as part of a bride’s dowry. One popular story tells of a wandering monk who traded his entire sack of medicinal herbs for a Dhupur pot after seeing an old woman cook rice that stayed warm through a night-long snowstorm—an act that led to the pot being revered not just as a cooking tool, but as a vessel of warmth and care.
