Hand Block Printing

India has a rich history of textiles. Hand block printing is one very authentic part of Indian Textile. It is a printing technique practiced in India for generations by artisans. This eco-friendly and sustainable technique is a sheer celebration of ecological aspects, plants, animals and human culture.

- The art begins from design of the block. Each block is handcrafted patiently.
- The motifs carved on wooden block are often inspired by nature and objects surrounded in our lives. These carved blocks have a story of their own.
- Every print is meticulously stamped on fabric after series of process, making it a labor-intensive and time-consuming craft.
- This technique has evolved over centuries and modern elements are visible in form of motifs and colors.
