“Hands destined to mould a thing of beauty”, the poet James Cousins wrote these lines about a young Sikh potter he met in Japan in 1921. Sardar Gurcharan Singh pioneered studio pottery in India, introducing the undervalued crafty to the imagination of the Indian masses, and striving to make colour and beauty accessible to all. The Lotus and the Swan celebrates his life and legacy
