By Brand : Shiv Kripa Blue Pottery

This authentic art can be traced back to Turko-Persian origin when the Turks came to conquer India in the 14th century. Initially, blue pottery was used in making tiles for masjids, palaces and tombs across Asia. With the coming of the Mughals, this art took off in India. Blue pottery came to India in the 19th century, when the king - Sawai Ram Singh 2 was impressed by the craft and demanded his craftsmen and artisans to learn the technique. The traditional blue pottery of Jaipur has been witnessing a stiff competition from inexpensive ceramic products. Earlier, this craft was popular and many artisans living in the Jaipur villages used to earn their bread through this trade. However, today only few families continue this handcraft. Amazon through its Amazon Karigar store showcases this beautiful art and the products to lighten up the living rooms of the houses across India.
