Rajasthan Block Print Robe

Kick back in a lightweight cotton robe from Aravali, in Jaipur, India. Block printing is a labor-intensive method of hand-printing fabric. The artisans imprint the cloth with a wooden block featuring a hand carved design. The printer moves from left to right, dipping the design block into the dye and stamping it onto the cloth. This is repeated to cover the entire cloth with the intended design and colors. Each block has a guide or registration point to match both designs and colors.
