Art & Craft In Jharkhand
The Different Type of Art & Crafts in Jharkhand include the following :Tribal ornaments The exquisite craftsmanship of the artists of Jharkhand can be judged by the state's delicately carved wooden as well as bamboo products. However, it is lamentable that the government of Jharkhand has so far failed in promoting and marketing these exclusive products, which may result in a slow death for the handicrafts of Jharkhand, in the foreseeable future.
Wooden Crafts - Jharkhand is a region that is abundantly surrounded by dense forests. The presence of wood in such a large quantity boosted the creativity of its artisans, who created a number of wooden articles for household use. These articles include windows, door panels, boxes, wooden spoons, etc. These intricately carved wooden articles have a good market not only in India but also abroad. They prove that sometimes great art can get inspired by mundane purpose.
Bamboo Works - The forests of Jharkhand have a good quality, thin; but strong and flexible bamboo. Such bamboo is used by the artisans for making different items out of the bamboo, such as fishing equipments and baskets.
Metal Works - The communities of the Tentri and the Malhar in the state of Jharkhand are experts in the crafts related to the metals, as well as making household wares.
Stone Carvings - This is another traditional craft of Jharkhand, very popular among the tribes. This is also becoming extinct nowadays. There are only some stone carvers remaining who have this knowledge. But they too are not doing their job well because it is not giving them sustenance.
Ornaments - The tribal people in Jharkhand are very fond of ornaments. The artists create simple but beautiful jewelry, by using metals such as gold, silver and beads. These ornaments appear very simple, but they highlight the understated elegance of the traditional culture of the region.
Toy Making - The tribals in Jharkhand also make beautiful toys, that can be used by small children for playing. The wooden cut-outs are eye-catching. They are painted with the canary paint that reveals the nature around. Thus we can say that Jharkhand is a state that is a haven for exotic handicrafts of different variety and styles. Handicrafts of Jharkhand present a slice of this wild state at its best.
