  • Ghazni Pottery







    Even Adobe Photoshop can't change me.

    A line[Durrand line] of hatred that raised a wall between the two brothers -Hamid Karzai

    For generations, the Hindus of India prayed for deliverance from "the venom of the cobra, the teeth of the tiger and the vengeance of the Afghan."


    The men of Kábul and Khilj also went home; and whenever they were questioned about the Musulmáns of the Kohistán (the mountains), and how matters stood there, they said, "Don't call it Kohistán, but Afghánistán; for there is nothing there but Afgháns and disturbances." Thus it is clear that for this reason the people of the country call their home in their own language Afghánistán, and themselves Afgháns. The people of India call them Patán; but the reason for this is not known. But it occurs to me, that when, under the rule of Muhammadan sovereigns, Musulmáns first came to the city of Patná, and dwelt there, the people of India (for that reason) called them Patáns—but God knows!

    -Ferishta, 1560–1620

                yeah it went very well even though he doesnt use any modern tools he was making such fine products.
                they were also sort of recycling the glass,throwing in old glass and creating these new fine products.

                very proud of Afghans they sure are talented

                  Exactly. He did it the way his mind was working. Which is so cool that he didnt have to 'learn' how to do it, just picked it up like that.

                  Yeah i thought it was smart how they recycled and reused the glasses.

                  I like how they made the shape of it too, just by twirling it around. Oh and the designs!!! wow!

                  Did you see how they made the laftaw lagaan too?

                    i think i missed that part
                    i watched from when the was pressing the heated glass against the wall and than blowing air inside it.
                    than they showd some impressive products one was a bird made out of glass.

                      Dear all, we should promote our culture in our own people rather than westernising our childern. if we do that we will be emerged in punjabis or others.

                        my suggestion is you get your facts straight and stop margenalising Pukhtane and throwing our national honour in the hands of pakis.
                        Thank you
