Bastar(バスタル)とは、インド北東部の少数部族が多く住む地域「バスタル地方」のこと。 この地方には住む少数部族は、各部族独自の習慣や生活様式を持ち、 彼らの暮らしの中で用いられてきた技術を生かした工芸品が、「バスタルアート」という名前でインド国内外で知られています。
政府との衝突などによって孤立して生活をする部族がいたり、安定した収入が得ることが難しかったりと多くの問題があり、都市部に比べると彼らの生活は決して楽なものではないと聞きます。 その中で生活の糧となるのが、彼らの作る工芸品であり、 現在インド国内では、昔ながらの製法で作られた「古き良き民芸品」として注目され、「バスタルアート」を紹介する動きが多くあります。
バスタルアイアンは、中央インドに多く住む「ゴンド族」の工芸品ですが、現地ではバスタル地方の代表的工芸品として「バスタルアイアン」の名前で親しまれているため、マライカでもこの名称で販売しています。
◆ゴンド族のつくる鉄工芸品(バスタルアイアン)キャンドルホルダー
インド中部の先住民族「ゴンド族」の工芸品。精錬や加工を1つ1つ手しごとで行うので、自然な渋みがあります。こちらは悪いものが入ってこないように戸口などに飾る習慣がある「ディア」といわれるもの。キャンドルホルダーとしてはもちろん。アクセサリーを少し置くのに便利。
