Pembarthi Brass Items are crafted in Pembarthi village (Jangaon district), Telangana, and are known for their sheet-metal brass craftsmanship featuring intricate embossing, engraving, and sculptural work. Artisans from this cluster, traditionally from the Vishwakarma community, blend age-old techniques with motifs drawn from mythology and South Indian temple architecture.

The tradition is believed to date back to the Kakatiya period, and today includes brass idols (vigrahas), decorative figurines, temple accessories, utilitarian items, and ornamental pieces. Pembarthi brasswork holds Geographical Indication status and continues to be cherished for its artistic mastery, cultural depth, and functional beauty.
