Damkesh/Damkoni Order

This handsewn all cotton, reversible lid cover absorbs the steam that collects inside the lid when we steam our Persian Rice It is by far more convenient than balancing a bulky kitchen towel over a hot pot of rice.

In response to your requests for my handmade Damkesh, these lid covers are sewn to order for a fee of $40.00, including shipping in the lower 48 United States. Size (S) fits lids up to 8 inches in diameter (M) for lids up to 10 inches, and (L) fits 12-inch lids. I use a double-thickness, machine washable 100% cotton fabric that absorbs the steam that collects in the lid during the steaming process and prevents it from dripping back on the rice. We do not have an inventory of different fabrics. The pattern and color of the current fabric is shown in the picture. This picture will be updated when a different fabric is used.
When you are ready to place your order:

Please email me at homa@persianmama.com with the size of the damkesh that you wish to order, your mailing address, and an email for the Paypal account
For your convenience, I have made arrangements for payments through Paypal. Once your email has been processed, you will be getting a notification from Paypal. If you have a Paypal account you will be able to pay through that, otherwise you may “Pay as guest.”
You will receive an email with the expected delivery date, and a tracking number once your damkesh has been shipped.
