West Bengal, often called the "Harvest Land" of handicrafts and handlooms, is home to a rich tradition of artisanal crafts that have flourished for centuries. Among the wide variety of crafts that the state is known for, jute handicrafts stand out due to their eco-friendliness, strength, and versatility. The Bengal crafts, known for their intricate designs and high-quality materials, have earned a significant place in India’s handicraft market. One of the key reasons behind the continued success of these crafts is the ready availability of raw materials and low labor costs in the region, making West Bengal a hub for such endeavors.

Metals and how a silver ring is made The history of humanity has been marked since the earliest times by the search for ways to extract and work metals with which to produce tools, objects, and weapons. In the early stages of human history, the most commonly used material was stone, but stone objects were challenging to work with and not very durable. Thanks to the properties of these materials, the transition to metals enabled humans to make more precise and durable tools that were more efficient. Historians have even used the name of alloys and metals to distinguish certain great epochs of humanity, such as the Copper and Bronze Ages.
