About Terracotta


In northern Bengal, Darjeeling and Siliguri, which are tourist attractions the craftsman mostly cater to the market demand for pots, and stylized terracotta objects like statuettes and wall panels. Matigara is famous for making large terracotta pots. They are thrown in parts and then joined together with the help of clay slip. Objects are adorned with the help of tools and sometimes figures made from moulds are attached. The clay used for making various objects come from the river beds of the Uttar Dinajpur area and the clay used for decoration comes from the tea gardens. The craftsmen make tiles and tubs for small plants. Some of them also make telephone stands, lampshades, fancy idols and decorative tiles. Motifs recur across items; the four commonly seen motifs are those of the tribal woman with a child, the palm tree, Ganesha figures, or typical motifs of Bengal, designs like ‘lata’ (blooming creepers) and ‘kalka’ (mango motifs). Terracotta in matigara is of very recent origin, though the craftsman who migrated to this region have been involved with the craft through generations. Ritual horses, elephants, manasa Chali and Shasta are produced in Panchmura, Bankura. For the votive elephants and horses, the clay is thrown on wheels and parts of the body are made separately, and joined later. The basic adornment is done with small clay balls and thin clay coils. This craft in Panchmura started with the rise in the popularity of the local serpent deity manasa. Local people promise to dedicate terracotta horses and elephants to the serpent deity on the fulfillment of a wish. The genesis of the famous Bankura terracotta horses and elephants lies here. These Bankura horses have also attached the urban market where they are used as objects of art. The men make the parts of the horses, which have to be thrown on the wheel, and the woman undertakes the decoration part of it. The women also make the hand formed small horse figures. Apart from the votive terracotta, the women also make plenty of clay dolls and toy by the pressing and molding methods. Some of these hand-formed dolls are also used for some ritual purpose. The Bankura horses are characterized by their erect neck and ears; and a dynamic look. The jaws are wide and a set of teeth can be seen; the eyebrows are drawn and the forehead is decorated with the chandmala necklace.
