❓ FAQs
Is this Kara made from Sarbloh?
Yes. This Kara is made from Sarbloh (iron) and is not being described as stainless steel.
What is engraved on the Kara?
The Kara features Mool Mantar Bani in Gurmukhi script in a contrasting silver-colour engraving.
Is the engraving on the whole Kara?
The Mool Mantar design runs around the circumference of the Kara. Exact positioning can vary slightly between handmade pieces and sizes.
Is this suitable for men and women?
Yes. The Kara is unisex and suitable for both Singh and Kaur.
Will Sarbloh rust?
Yes. Sarbloh is iron and can naturally oxidise/rust, particularly following exposure to water, moisture, perspiration or humidity. This is a natural property of the material rather than evidence that the Kara is defective.
Can the black finish vary?
Yes. Handmade production, lighting, photography and different batches can produce slight differences in the appearance of the black finish and silver-colour engraving.
Where is the Kara dispatched from?
This item is held in UK stock and dispatched from the United Kingdom.
