Pottery is one of the oldest forms of handicrafts in the Indian sub-continent. In fact, it is not so much of an art, as it is, a way of life. Evidence of pottery has been found in the Indus Valley and Harappa Civilizations. However, Indian pottery continues to be a part of our households in the form of pots, pans, jugs, water mugs and so on. The great thing about Indian pottery is that it has been able to balance the artistry with mundane usage. Where on one hand, the skill and style of the pottery handicrafts are a symbol of Indian culture, on the other, the practical use of pottery in our everyday existence is common.

Types of Pottery

Unglazed and glazed are essentially the two distinct types of pottery. Each holds within its fold a variety of handicrafts and pottery making skills, most of which are akin to specific areas and regions of the country. There is also a historical reference and influence on the different types of pottery.

Unglazed pottery is what has been in practice for centuries. Clay and terracotta is the most commonly used material for unglazed pottery in India.
