Overall, my visit to Bengal Terracotta & Handicraft was a memorable one, and I left with a newfound appreciation for artisanal craftsmanship. With its diverse range of products, reasonable prices, and exquisite designs, it's a destination I look forward to revisiting in the future.
This reminded me of the place where I grew up, my mother and my aunt used to make clay pieces, they had moulds with attractive figures such as: plates, vases, fruits .... they also had a kiln and I still have it in a room of old things, I admire crafts and I know that behind each piece there are many hours of work.
That's great. Making something by our own feels amazing. I bet their handmade items are amazing.
Thanks for your response.
