At the end of the 11th century, the Kachhawaha clan established their kingdom at Amber. They were one of several powerful Rajput kingdoms, such as the Chauhans of Ajmer and Ranthambore, and the Rathore clan of Marwar region. The early Rajput states engaged in bitter internecine clan wars, but with the rise of the Delhi Sultanate, their energies were directed at safeguarding their territories against the marauding Muslim troops. When imperial power at Delhi passed to the Mughal emperor Akbar, military and matrimonial alliances were forged between the centralized power at Delhi and the Rajput kingdoms, ushering in an era of cultural and social synthesis that had a great impact on the art and architecture of the region. In the 18th century, the capital of the Kachhawahas was shifted to Jaipur, the ‘City of Victory’ located to the south of Amber. Constructed under the supervision of the then ruler Sawai Jai Singh II and Vidhyadhar Chakravarty, a Bengali scholar and engineer, the city is one of north India’s finest examples of urban planning. Surrounded by a crenulated wall pierced by seven gates, the city’s plan is based on a grid of nine rectangular sectors, believed to represent the nine cosmic divisions of the universe. The grids are linked through a pragmatic system of main streets, intersected by pedestrian lanes leading to workshops and occupational colonies. Also figuring prominently in the plan are the spacious market squares operated by traders and artisans who migrated to Jaipur due to the tax benefits and other economic incentives provided by Sawai Jai Singh. The Jaipur of today is a melange of the modern and the living memories of the city’s feudal past.

Wheel turning and moulding techniques are used in combination—the necks and bases are wheel-turned, the body is shaped in a plaster of Paris mould and the separate elements are joined. The surface is then engobed, a process involving the application of a clean white coat on the sanded and dried object so as to make the surface smooth, white and blot free. The patterns, largely florals rendered in the Persian style, are painted on in metal oxide pigments (mineral pigments) and the whole object is given a glass glaze. During the firing, the pigments develop the characteristic brilliant shades of turquoise blue, pale green, yellow and red-brown and the milky glaze turns transparent. Since the presence of water can cause the object to collapse during firing, blue pottery is dried at various stages during its production. The pottery is finished with a transparent glass glaze. Generally, women perform the task of grinding the pigments while men undertake the throwing and moulding of the pottery forms, the painting and the firing. According to local legend, Maharaja Sawai Ram II was watching his kite-master compete with other challengers when the thread of the imperial kite was cut by that of two brothers, Churamani and Kaluram, who were potters and had coated their kite string with the blue green glass-like dust of their pottery. The maharaja was impressed and gave them posts in the School of Art and settled them in the Goonga Mehra ki Gali in Gangori Bazaar; it was thus that blue pottery came to Jaipur.
