Rajasthan Blue Pottery Brush Holder

Blue Pottery, introduced to Jaipur in the 14th century, blends Persian and Mughal aesthetics and flourished under Rajput patronage. Unlike traditional pottery, it uses quartz, powdered glass, Fuller’s earth, and gum for its translucent blue hue and waterproof properties. Crafted meticulously by hand or mold, artisans carve intricate designs filled with cobalt oxide for its signature color. Fired at lower temperatures, Blue Pottery features floral, geometric, and animal motifs inspired by Rajasthani and Mughal art. It symbolizes tradition and cultural identity in Rajasthan, used decoratively and functionally in homes and ceremonies, fostering local craftsmanship and heritage preservation.
