Explanation:

The metal workers of Amritsar are renowned for their skill. Various forms of casting, soldering, and decoration techniques such as repousse, pierced work, chasing, engraving etc are used by them to make metal pots, utensils, objects needed for religious rituals (lamps, trumpet, etc). Decorative items like lamp shades and engraved metal doors are some of the items on which these artisans work. The figurative engraved panels of the Temples and Gurudwaras are also much in demand. At times metal doors are plated with gold and silver and a very fine repousse work done on them.
