dc.description.abstract | Blue pottery being a representation of art is a well-known and most widespread practice in Multan. This study aims to investigate blue pottery production focusing on the comprehensive features of the blue pottery making procedure. The most commonly created and ornamented patterns and designs of blue pottery are mentioned in detail. Furthermore, the problems potters experience while making blue pottery are also discussed. To obtain a deeper understanding of research matter, qualitative research tools, and techniques including rapport building, participant observation, formal interviewing and case study methods were employed. Forty potters were selected as research respondents. The findings indicate that potters mainly follow traditional methods which is a tiring and time-consuming process of pottery making by gathering raw-material and using specific tools. Numerous designs and patterns of blue pottery are drawn on ceramic items and tiles depending on the requirement of the customer as well as the size of the item. Blue potters face various socio-economic and working issues including the difficulty of gathering raw material, work locality, the dearth of capital, health issues, less economic productivity, and marketing, and managing obstacles. | en_US |
