Koftgari
The Spearpoint ‘Spring Rain’ features William Henry Koftgari. Koftgari is the name for fine gold (and/or silver) patterns inlaid into parkerized steel. This ancient Indian technique, done entirely by hand, involves creating a very fine cross-hatch grid in the steel and then burnishing 24K gold (and/or silver) into a pattern that is bound by the cross-hatch. Parkerizing involves soaking the steel in a boiling solution of salts to oxidize the steel a deep brown/blue.
Beautiful and timeless, Koftgari is nearly a lost art. William Henry’s Koftgari comes from 2 small villages in India, home of the very few Indian artisans that still master this technique.
