Potteries were also designed taking inspiration from floral designs. Flowers and leaves were generally used on the potteries as a part of natural beauty. Then came the carved pottery. The Mughal period became much famous for carving on potteries.


Indian Pottery Designs: Indian pottery is also very famous for its decorative design patterns. Many decorative designs were used in on Indian pots. Each design had its own meaning. The Indians did not use sacred traditions, ceremonial rituals, or symbols from earliest times. Previously the Indian tribes used to design the potteries on the basis of nature and natural sources like birds, animals, humans and even gods as a part of pottery designs. Many pottery designs also feature different paintings on potteries like horse paintings, fish patterns, flower patterns and images of gods and goddesses.
