What is a copper hammered tandoor? A copper hammered tandoor is a tandoor whose outer body is made of copper sheet that is hammered by hand, which leaves a pattern of small dimples that catch the light. Inside it has the same clay tandoor chamber as any other tandoor, so it cooks the same way. It is chosen for how it looks, mainly in open kitchens, live counters, buffet stations and fine-dining restaurants.

Why Restaurants Choose a Copper Hammered Tandoor

Forno Sethi copper hammered tandoor for live kitchens A Centre-Piece for Guests – The warm copper colour and hammered pattern make the tandoor part of your restaurant’s look, not just a cooking tool.

Hand-Crafted Finish – The hammered surface is shaped by hand, so each tandoor looks rich and slightly different.

Real Clay Tandoor Inside – The copper is the outer body. Inside is the same clay chamber, so you do not give up taste or heat for the look.

Made to Your Size – We build to your counter and your volume, instead of fitting a standard size into your layout.

Pick Your Fuel – Charcoal for smoky taste, gas (LPG or PNG) for quick start and easy control, or hybrid for both.

Repair and Spares – Clay repair and spare parts are available, so a worn chamber does not mean a new tandoor.

Copper or SS: Which Body Should You Choose? Copper, Mirror SS and Rose Gold Compared

Short answer: Choose copper if the look is the priority and guests will see the tandoor. Choose mirror finish SS for a bright, easy-care body. Choose rose gold PVD if you want a copper-like colour with the easy care of SS. The clay chamber and the cooking are the same in all three.

How a Copper Hammered Tandoor Is Made

Short answer: A clay tandoor chamber is built first, then it is wrapped in a custom copper outer body that is hammered by hand to give the pattern. The copper is for the look. The clay does the cooking.

1. Clay chamber

The clay tandoor chamber gives the steady heat and the real tandoor taste.

2. Insulation

Insulation around the chamber keeps heat in and the outside cooler.

3. Hammered copper body

The outer copper body is shaped and hammered by hand, then finished for your counter.

Caring for a Copper Tandoor

Short answer: Let it cool, wipe the copper with a soft cloth, and polish it from time to time to bring back the shine. Copper naturally darkens with heat and time, so expect some colour change.

Daily

Let the tandoor cool fully, then wipe the copper with a soft, dry or slightly damp cloth.

Shine

Polish with a copper polish when you want the shine back, as often as your look needs.

Avoid

Avoid harsh scrubbers that scratch the surface, and never pour water on a hot tandoor.

Before first use, cure the clay chamber slowly. See our curing guide.

Fuel and Set-Up for a Copper Tandoor Charcoal, Gas or Hybrid

Short answer: Gas (LPG or PNG) is the common choice for live counters because it starts quickly and is easy to control. Charcoal gives the smoky taste but needs strong ventilation. Hybrid lets you use either.

  • Charcoal
  • Gas (LPG or PNG)
  • Hybrid

In an open kitchen, plan a hood, chimney or exhaust so heat and fumes leave the dining area, since charcoal makes carbon monoxide. Keep cloth and decoration away from the tandoor mouth. Tell us which gas you will use, because the burner nozzle differs for LPG and PNG. More on the gas tandoor.
