About the textile
This textile was hand block printed in Bagru, a town located 30 km outside of Jaipur, India. Artisans have been block printing in Bagru for over 350 years and it is the resilience of the hereditary Chippa printers that has kept the link alive between the past and present. The first step in block printing is to carve a wooden block with the desired pattern, which is done with incredible precision. Each colour and design requires a separate block. The wood block is dipped into dye, or if it is resist printed it is dipped into ‘Dabu’, a mud paste, and is then printed onto the fabric. Depending on the final design and colour, the fabric can go through several stages of printing, dying and washing. Between each stage, the fabric is dried by laying it out in large fields, on rooftops, or hung from buildings.

Please note each textile is unique and handcrafted, therefore no two pieces are exactly the same. Artisan variances may be present. Colour can also vary across screens and monitors. Our photos are a close representation but may not be identical to the piece you receive.
