My family and I had visited some of the artisans houses/workshops at at Nizamabad, when I was having election duty at Azamgarh during 2019 General Election. We had purchased many show case items, still having in my house in Cochin, and they had gifted me several as I was an Election Observer camping at Azamgarh circuit house. Those beautiful works of art haven't lost its sheen evenafter 5 years. Admire their artistry! I was told that some of them had got President's awards. As Hyderabad, where I was working, had a Nizamabad in Northern Telengana, due to Nizam's rule, I was surprised to know of another Nizamabad at Azamgarh district. Sweet memories of three Election related visits and stays in Azamgarh!
Hats off to these gems of India, still keeping this Art alive. Use of Lead + Mercury without harming themselves is commendable. Thanks for this information INTACH.
My ignorance..I had never heard of them before. Lucky me that the video suggestion got me here. I’m a pottery enthusiast...thanks for this beautiful video..I’ve learnt something new today.
Amazing skill , ingenuity and hard work by all . Their products should easily sell all over the world at a good price , any entrepreneurs there ? With lots of respect an appreciation from Pakistan 👍
Absolutely beautiful. So polished. Just magical, but I would think the mercury and lead poisoning is pure horror and is easily rectified by providing information. Skilled artisans like this should not be wasted.
Beautiful! My only concern though about using lead, zinc and mercury in the etched designs on these ceramic wares is that it would be unhealthy to cook food in these same decorative pots, while they are laid over a fire.
Beautifull. But i wished they'd be tauhgt about the dangers of lead and mercury. They shouldn't poison themselves while making these beautifull pieces of art.
Embellishing Pottery is not just made from clay but also involves the risk of life with a lack of health conditions and lightning in the furnaces or working areas.
Watching this makes me want to take a big ass boat to India, have these people load it down with pottery, bring the boat back to America and sell the pottery. These pieces could fetch a hundred bucks or more. These people should be well payed for their work.are making less than $10 day. That's a travesty. Exporting it could bring them four times that.
Didn't any of u people discussing how to profit from this watch the video? Women of the village are rubbing toxic metals into their skin (since skin is probably more likely to absorb led/mercury than pottery) I once saw something on the news of people living in refugee camps melting electronic wast to extract precious rare metals. I bet there is a great business opportunity for you to head over there and buy it from them. Imagine, you could probably double or triple their earnings. 🙄
In utopy world yes, but in reality price be high but potters don't get much more becouse the buyers and selers in western world will take most of the cash. Also technic that is use to make patterns are extremely dengerus for women. Also the western people knowing that the patterns are make with led and mercury will do not buy it for safety reasons.
@@olazabalwikstrom if you discourage the buyers by saying this so indirectly you are ruining their business which may get them on roads, so it is better to make them aware of it. A lot of articles we are using have some sort of poisonous or carcinogenic components but we are not aware of that..!
@@olazabalwikstrom I really feel thankful to you for this type of effort which you are planning to do for these artisans...!! If you don't mind could I know from which country do you belong..?
@@olazabalwikstrom hi I've manage to locate a Potter from Nizamabad and my 1st question was use of Mercury. He reassured me they take precautions etc.. His words where he's been in trade with wife for several years both fit n healthy
10:55 mercury! In the hand! That is very poisonous stuff! Lead too is poisonous. It's beautiful, but not worth the price of poisoning people. People are important! There must be a safer way than using lead and mercury.

What are you going on about. They're handling toxic metals with bare hands, they're undoubtedly suffering from the consequences
Skilled workers from generation. Kudos to these people.
Here after our PM gifted black pottery to Japan PM. There's still so much to learn about our own country. Truly amazing work.
Thanks For Showing My Town Talents ☺️

Great effort by INTACH to introduce a very nice piece of small-town art..!
3:24 This shot is just lovely ❤
Beautiful! My only concern though about using lead, zinc and mercury in the etched designs on these ceramic wares is that it would be unhealthy to cook food in these same decorative pots, while they are laid over a fire.
Such a great effort to save such a great art form.
Good

Beautifull. But i wished they'd be tauhgt about the dangers of lead and mercury. They shouldn't poison themselves while making these beautifull pieces of art.
Subtitles are too small
THANK YOU LOVELY PEOPLE
Beautiful work but the handling of mercury is quite toxic on the bare hands and can lead to mercury poisoning.
काबिज कैसे बना ते है
Embellishing Pottery is not just made from clay but also involves the risk of life with a lack of health conditions and lightning in the furnaces or working areas.

True, though the problem is import taxes from bringing it over, as well as shipping costs, and risk of damage along the way.
Soreofhing but these black pots from Nizamabad are absolutely way more beautiful art work than Mexican black pots or lachamba pots

We are bringing these products online. Soon people from across world would be able to buy these products, and yes, prices will be decided by potters.
In utopy world yes, but in reality price be high but potters don't get much more becouse the buyers and selers in western world will take most of the cash. Also technic that is use to make patterns are extremely dengerus for women. Also the western people knowing that the patterns are make with led and mercury will do not buy it for safety reasons.
Let's promote the use of mercury!
Yes! How can I buy one so I can help prolong the women's healthy use of shiny metals.

@@anandshukla1730 I actually sent this to my indian friend asking him when we can go visit them so we can inform about how toxic mercury is.
