Gala Glazed Big Vase- Black and Yellow
The Gala art of Ilambazar gained global fame in the early 20th century, possibly showcased in a Paris exhibition. Rabindra Bhavan Museum still preserves Japanese Gala gifts received by Tagore, who invited Gopal Guin, a skilled Ilambazar artist, to teach at Santiniketan in 1922. After Shilpa Bhavan’s establishment in 1924, Guin nurtured this eco-friendly craft, passing it to Ajit Guin, who passed it forward to Sheikh Yusuf Ali, its sole custodian today. We proudly present Yusuf Ali’s remarkable work at 'The Bengal Store.'
This set contains a Terracotta Bottle beautifully glazed with Gala
This traditional art form of Bengal deserves all the praise, applause, and help not merely because the products are so unique and beautifully handcrafted, but to appreciate the passion and the age-old bond that men and women have with mother nature!
