What is block printing in textiles?

 

Picture this: A delicate thud making a quiet, restorative beat as a wooden square, plunged in lively tones musically hits the fabric spread out on the table. This is what the enthralling sorcery of block printing looks like!

Initially tracing all the way back to China, block-print gained popularity in the subcontinent along the banks of the mighty Ganga. For quite a long time, this printing technique was desired all through the world, where square printed materials were sent out from the district to the far and center east, Africa and Europe.

Block prints transcend time and are a summer favorite because they make you stand out from the “market” prints, have a crafty feel and the best part: you’re giving back to the artisan community and also keeping this craft alive! OFCOURSE, we love this craft and OFCOURSE we have lots of such beauties in stock that you can shop away online right away.
