The art of making glazed blue pottery, though originally from Persia, came to Rajasthan, India, after the ruler Sawai Ram Singh II in 1868. It was known as “Sangine” in Persia which means STONE POTTERY in Persian. It got the name blue pottery because of the extensive use of the colour blue in all of the items. It is made of crushed quartz, fullers earth and sodium sulphite, and fired in kilns at 800C.
Dimensions: 12” H
Disclaimer: Blue Pottery is not water tight and is fragile. It does not have the strength of stoneware. Whenever possible use both hands to pick it up. Vases can be used for fresh flowers with plastic inserts.
Care: Blue Pottery can be cleaned with a damp cloth. Do not use commercial cleaners.
