The art of sheet metal is yet another art indicative of the artistic talents nurtured through centuries in the state. The art has originated in Pembarthi, a village in Warangal District. The craft dating back to the period of Kakatiyas once adorned the chariots and the statues. With temples proliferating in the vast Kakatiya kingdom, the Pembarthi sheet metal worker saw his fame attract people from all regions of India.

But, with the decline of the Kakatiya kingdom the scenario has changed quite a bit. The art, during Nizam's period came under the influence of Islamic culture and gradually wore a secular look. The artisans in the later days were seen switching over to making articles of home decoration with Pandans and Ithar pots being produced with great dexterity.

Among the few masterpieces of the Art could be the idols of Natya Ganapati, Nandi, Nataraja, the Cronch, Lotus and Chakra depictive of Lord Vishnu. Need to mention are the artifacts like "Gangalam", the big vessels that can add to the beauty of any interiors and the famous historical "Kakatiya Dwar" that could be among one’s personal collection.
