The Eames India Report discussed the design process, using the example of the Lota, a simple vessel of everyday use in India. *Atharva Conversation | Prof. s. Balaram & Pranav K. Vasishta* “Of all the objects we have seen and admired during our visit to India,” Charles and Ray Eames wrote in their report, “the lota, that simple vessel of everyday use, stands out as perhaps the greatest, the most beautiful. The village women have a process which, with the use of tamarind and ash, each day turns this brass into gold.” https://youtu.be/nj1_IuQMH5s?feature=shared
