About dbaTHIS

THIS purveys products for Home: small-batch handcrafted tabletop and sundry. We specialize in goods that are both singular and yet particularly useful. dbaTHIS[dot]com for complete offerings THIS Tabletop for home + office are the hard goods kinfolk to India's Khadi textiles - with their humble, everyday, and handmade spirit, these post-independence modern tabletop classics are comfortable in all contexts and cultures. We offer pure raw metals: no faux, lacquer nor chemical finishes. In this way the unadulterated brass, copper, iron and bronze provide their unique properties directly to the user: brass is inherently anti-microbial, copper sanitizing, and bronze ayurvedically medicinal. THIS metal wares are both hand-tooled and industrially-worked in studios by a progression of involved processes: Brass, Copper, and Iron products are cut from metal sheets and pressed on 19th century machinery, spun on vintage lathes, ground by abrasive wheels and subsequently polished to a fine finish. A select group of bronze goods are cast, hand-beaten, spun finished and coal fired – the same as it ever was. Our goods are left with the marks of manufacture: crimping marks, tooling lines, solder joints, et al. This is intentional. And perfectly imperfect. THIS metals ship with a soft protective finish of hand-rubbed beeswax + mineral oil cream, slowing the natural oxidizing process, and, protects, preserves and conditions. (100% natural & food-safe).
