Rajasthan's terracotta tradition, dating back to the Indus Valley Civilization, continues today in all parts of the state. The plaques of Molela (a small town near Udaipur) are a must-buy.

Clay is extensively used for making pots, dolls and other objects. Brush-painted images of folk divinities are sold in village fairs during festive times such as Gangaur, Teej and Diwali.

Jaipur is the home of glazed blue-pottery, which has its origin in Persia. Vases, flower pots, bowls, water pots and other objects are produced in traditional geometrical and floral motifs, as well as hand-painted details of Rajasthani legends.
