Comment 'UFO' to make these yours 🛸

Found inside my great-grandmother’s boshanam, these 130-year-old brass miniatures look like tiny flying saucers, but they hold a beautiful South Indian wedding secret. They are actually antique toys, perfectly replicating the sacred boxes used by an Achari (goldsmith) to deliver a bride's nuptial chain.

​I’m on a mission to unravel the forgotten traditions and daily history of the Indian subcontinent, sharing the heirloom knowledge passed down through my family.

Hit follow to join the journey.

Found this rare survivor in my grandfather's collection and the nostalgia is hitting hard.

Decades ago, kids would hoard their pocket money to buy a cola, just hoping to score one of these legendary flipbooks.

​It’s more than just vintage memorabilia, it’s a masterclass in classic Indian advertising and the deep-rooted connection between Cricket and Thums-Up.🥤

​Did you ever own one of these? Drop a 🏏 in the comments if you remember the flicker book craze!
