    The clay of Bastar region has tremendous plasticity and strength, hence good for making big pots. Initially only handis, pitchers and pots were made for sale in the local market. It gradually increased to creating masks, animal figures and sculptures. Now contemporary forms like penholders, lamps, and paperweights are also made. Animal figures of Bastar elephant and horse are the most famous ones, renowned for their unique style and ornamentation.
