RUA 2025-(wl-7711)-Spatial Embeddedness and Multi-Scalar Production Networks: Urban Practice of Glass Bangle-making in Firozabad

This paper engages with the centrality of an artisan’s household within the geography of traditional bangle-making by spatially locating it within the networks of production in the context of Firozabad artisanal cluster in Uttar Pradesh. Employing a relational approach to reading of space, this paper analyses spatial configurations of work-life and spatial practice of artisanal bangle-workers to arrive at the dynamic, multi-scalar urban spatiality emerging from an intersection of spatial embeddedness of both capital and labour in an artisan’s home. relations.
