Jaipur Artisan Industry






Calm Blue in Pink City

Blue pottery of Jaipur has a soothing approach as it adds a sense of calm and composer to the hot city in Indian deserts. With its origin lying in Indo-Persian tradition, it has become a unique artistic creation in heritage of India. 

The name is ‘blue pottery’ as obvious, as potteries are dyed in blue colour. Another unique feature which is very distinctive is that it not made of clay. It uses a mixture of quartz stone powder, powdered glass, Multani Mitti, borax, gum and water and burned in low fire.

This technique isn’t Indian; however, it succeeded in toning down the creativity into artisans here. It was imported from Mongol artisans of China. It was also used to build floors and walls of historical and religious monuments. Jaipur king who was great lover of art sent artisan s to Kashmir to learn this art. Since then, the blue pottery has owned Jaipur and Jaipur have owned this artery.
