কৃষ্ণনগরের ঘূর্ণির মাটির পুতুল II Clay doll of Ghurni, Krishnanagar.

The old name of Krishnanagar was Rewe. In the early 17th century Bhabananda Majumdar founded the royal family of Nadia. Later, Maharaja Rudra changed the name to Krishnagar. In 1757, Maharaja Krishnachandra (1710-1783) helped the British East India Company against Siraj ud-Daulah in the Battle of Plassey. In 1728 he brought families of potters from Dhaka and Natore and settled them in Ghurni, then a village.
In an article, the Bangalore-based newspaper Deccan Herald writes, "We have clay dolls, toys and even clay sculptures in different parts of India. But there has been nothing to match the clay doll artisans of Krishnanagar in the Nadia district of West Bengal. The creations of these artists are displayed in most of the handicraft museums of the world. In India, we have a large display of these dolls in the Shankar’s Doll Museum in New Delhi. One look at the clay dolls and we are amazed at the reality with which the artist has displayed the character of the model. A horse rearing to gallop to a placid dog licking its lips after a hearty feed".
Exhibitions of Krishnagar dolls have been held in London, Paris and Boston. Ghurni clay models have won medals and certificates at international exhibitions.
