A dazzling testament to Southern Asian silver in
daily use
Silver elevates use, not only
for the diverse religious rituals of Southern Asia, but also consumption of and
access to once-new items: photographs, mirrors, railways, and automobiles;
newly invented or traded foods including tea, coffee, Indian pale ale, wines, dairy
products, relishes, fruits and seasonings. Many of these items originated in
Southern Asia and were among the first tinned or bottled items to circulate in
global markets.



 A discussion of Southern Asian
silver’s artistry, functionality and cultural and economic soft power is
accompanied by a spectacular array of 130 suites of silver and 22 design
drawings.
