Black pottery from Ukhrul shines as a symbol of tribal heritage

Jun 26, 2025

Ukhrul (Manipur), 26 June ANI: Nungbi village in the Ukhrul district of Manipur, where black pottery is a centuries-old craft and a treasured heritage of the Tangkhul Naga community. What makes this pottery unique is that it is entirely handmade — no potter’s wheel is used. The process relies on two natural materials: serpentine stone and clay. The stone is collected from the forest, ground into a fine powder by hand, and mixed with water to create a malleable clay. The pot is then shaped by hand, left to dry for several days, and finally fired in a kiln in a traditional way. Black pottery is more than just beautiful—it’s natural, durable, and eco-friendly. Made into pots, cups, plates, and bowls, it’s ideal for cooking and serving, keeping food warm without any chemicals. Rooted in Manipur’s rich heritage, this craft reflects tradition, sustainability, and timeless wisdom. With rising global interest, Manipur’s black pottery is becoming a proud symbol of India’s artisanal excellence. These utensils are perfect for everyday use as well as in hotels and restaurants. They can be placed directly on gas or fire, preserving the food’s warmth and flavour.Thanks to these qualities, demand for black pottery continues to grow.
