Brass Dallah Arabic Coffee Pot – Green Floral Pattern, 500ml
Made to be used, not just displayed.
Bring a little garden to your gahwa. This hand-painted green floral brass dallah turns the traditional Arabic coffee pot into a centerpiece, with a symmetrical floral pattern painted by hand on solid brass. It is made to be used and to be admired, so it works as well on a coffee tray as on a mantel.
The Green Floral design
Green is a calming, natural color, and this pattern leans into that with a seamless, balanced floral design. As with every Dastkaari piece, there are no stencils or prints. The artwork is brushed on by hand over 8 to 10 layers of base paint, which gives the green its richness and the flowers their dimension.

Frequently Asked Questions
Product Use
What is a dallah used for?
A dallah is a traditional Arabic coffee pot used to serve gahwa (Arabic coffee) and herbal or mint tea. Its long spout allows graceful, controlled pouring into small handleless cups.
How do I use a dallah?
Prepare your coffee or tea separately, then transfer it to the dallah and pour into small cups. Traditionally, Arabic coffee is simmered with cardamom in a separate pot and the dallah is used for serving.
Can I heat the dallah on the stove?
You can gently warm it. Always place a heat diffuser between the dallah and the stovetop, use low heat, and never put the painted brass directly over a flame or onto a heating surface. We recommend preparing coffee or tea separately and using the dallah mainly for serving.
Can I use it for tea as well as coffee?
Yes. It works beautifully for herbal tea, mint tea and other warm drinks as well as Arabic coffee.
Is this dallah functional or decorative?
Both. It is made for serving, and its hand-painted artwork makes it a piece of functional art for your home.
How is a dallah different from a Turkish coffee pot (cezve or ibrik)?
A cezve is a small pot used to brew Turkish coffee directly on the heat. A dallah has a larger body and a long curved spout and is traditionally used to serve Arabic coffee prepared separately.
Does this make a good gift?
Yes. A hand-painted dallah suits housewarmings, weddings, Eid, Ramadan, anniversaries and the holidays, and appeals to coffee lovers, tea lovers and art collectors alike.
Materials
What is this dallah made of?
It is handcrafted from solid brass and finished with hand-painted artwork.
Is every dallah unique?
Yes. Each dallah is painted individually by hand, so small differences in brushwork, color and detail are part of its handmade character.
Is the hand-painted artwork sealed?
Yes. The painted finish is protected with a clear, food-safe coating that helps preserve the artwork. Avoid abrasive cleaning over the painted areas.
Why does brass look different over time?
Brass naturally develops a patina as it ages. This gradual change adds warmth and depth and is part of the character of the met
Care
How should I clean my dallah?
Hand wash gently with warm water and mild dish soap, using a soft cloth or sponge. Dry thoroughly after washing.
Can I put the dallah in the dishwasher?
No. We recommend hand washing only. The heat, detergent and water pressure of a dishwasher can damage the brass, the painted artwork and the protective finish.
Can I use brass polish on it?
Please avoid polish on the painted areas, as it can damage the artwork and the protective coating. If exposed, unpainted brass ever needs polishing, use a gentle method and keep the polish away from the painted surfaces.
How do I keep the artwork looking its best?
Treat it as functional art. Handle it gently, avoid abrasive materials and direct heat, and hand wash it.
