Uttar Pradesh is one of the largest brass and copper making states in India with thousands of people employed in these establishments. Raw material is generally obtained by either melting minerals or old scrap. The object is generally shaped by beating with a hammer the sheet metal to the required shape while heating, or by pouring the molten material to the mold made of sand for ordinary objects.
Some of the non- ferrous metals that man shaped into tools earlier were copper and bronze mainly for their weightlessness and resistance to corrosion. The craftsmen of Aligarh are generally engaged in making Buddha statues of various shapes and sizes. Aligarh is famous for its various monuments and is one of the commercial center of Uttar Pradesh known as a center for brass hardware and statues.
