GI Tagged Handicrafts Exporter from India for Dhokra Terracotta and Patachitra

SMPC Navsetu is handicrafts manufacturer and exporter in India, supplying GI-tagged handicrafts to global importers, wholesalers, and private label brands.
We specialise in Dhokra metal craft, Bankura terracotta, and Bengal Patachitra, sourced through region-specific artisan clusters and controlled procurement networks.
Our focus is on origin authenticity, process integrity, and consistency across export orders.
GI-tagged handicrafts are not interchangeable products. Their value depends on origin, process, and cluster-specific execution.

Authenticity Risk in Handicraft Sourcing

Handcrafted products do not follow uniform manufacturing logic. Variation is inherent. Control requires structured sourcing.

Dhokra Metal Craft Export Using Lost Wax Casting from West Bengal

Dhokra metal craft follows the lost wax casting method, a technique practiced in the Indian subcontinent for over four millennia.
This is not replicated metalwork. It is a process where each mould is destroyed after casting, making every piece inherently non-repeatable.
Each product reflects:
  • Hand-modelled wax detailing before casting
  • Brass-based composition with natural surface variation
  • One-time mould usage ensuring unique output
  • Motifs rooted in tribal and regional traditions
Clusters such as Bikna and Dariapur continue this lineage, preserving both technique and identity across generations.

Bankura Terracotta Handicrafts Clay Modelling and Kiln Firing from West Bengal

Bankura terracotta originates from temple and ritual traditions, where form and balance were defined through manual shaping and firing.

Terracotta performance is determined during drying and firing, not after production.

  • Hand-modelled clay built in structural segments
  • Controlled drying to regulate internal moisture
  • Kiln firing calibrated for strength and stability
  • Natural tonal variation based on firing conditions
  • Forms aligned with traditional proportions such as the Bankura horse
Minor variation in moisture or kiln temperature can lead to cracking, warping, or structural failure.

Bengal Patachitra Paintings Traditional Scroll Art from West Bengal

Patachitra is a narrative painting tradition where visual composition follows structured storytelling formats.

Each artwork is part of a sequence, not an isolated design.

  • Hand-drawn panels arranged in narrative order
  • Natural pigments derived from plant and mineral sources
  • Surface preparation for durability and colour retention
  • Brushwork executed without mechanical replication
  • Themes aligned with traditional storytelling formats
For export, consistency depends on controlled sourcing across similar styles, colour tones, and finishing standards.
