Ganesh On Dhol

Bankura’s terracotta is an internationally appreciated art form. Traditional terracotta artists used to inscribe the temple walls with this artwork. In this craft form, a blend of different types of clay found in river beds and pits is shaped into beautiful designs, and baked at high temperatures to give the material stiffness and stability. Biswa Bangla has diversified Terracotta craft into home decor items, jewellery, and other utility products like lamps, tubs, crockery, tiles etc.
