Kalporgan pottery کلپورگان
Kalporgan pottery is hand-built, unglazed earthenware from Kalporgan, a village near Saravan in Sistan and Baluchestan. Women shape the pots by hand without a wheel, using local clay and simple tools, and paint them with geometric motifs in a dark mineral pigment. The skill is passed down from generation to generation.
