PM Modi gifts Bidriware Vases to Ghana President
Accra (Ghana), July 3 (UNI) Prime Minister Narendra Modi today gifted a pair of exquisite Bidriware flower vases to Ghanaian President John Mahama, highlighting India's deep-rooted cultural heritage and the exceptional artistry of Karnataka's famed metalcraft tradition. The handcrafted vases, originating from Bidar in Karnataka, are fashioned from a zinc-copper alloy and inlaid with intricate silver floral motifs. They represent the centuries-old Bidriware tradition, a unique metalworking technique known for its striking black finish achieved using a special soil treatment native to the region. Each piece is a blend of Bahamani Sultanate era design inspiration and contemporary aesthetic sensibilities, symbolising harmony and craftsmanship that spans generations. The gesture reflects more than diplomatic courtesy; it signifies India's commitment to preserving and promoting indigenous handicrafts on the global stage. Bidriware, once patronised by royalty, has seen fluctuating fortunes in recent decades. The Prime Minister's choice to present it as a state gift marks a deliberate and strategic use of cultural diplomacy. The gifting of Bidriware on an international platform is expected to rejuvenate interest in the art form and spark a market revival, bringing direct economic benefits to the artisans of Bidar. Increased visibility can lead to greater demand, improved livelihoods, and long-term sustainability for the craftsmen who have kept this tradition alive for over 500 years. Furthermore, the move is significant in terms of heritage preservation. When recognised at such high levels of diplomacy, traditional crafts gain a new level of prestige, encouraging younger generations and institutions to explore, document, and learn these skills. It opens doors for vocational training, government support, and craft school engagement. From a broader perspective, the gifting of such artefacts reflects India's expanding global cultural footprint. As Indian leaders use indigenous art to build goodwill, it subtly projects India's soft power, framing the nation not just as an economic and geopolitical player, but also as a guardian of civilisational richness and artistic legacy. In selecting Bidriware for President Mahama, Prime Minister Modi offered more than a gift — he extended a piece of India's soul, its storytelling in metal and silver, and its enduring respect for the hands that shape heritage.
