An almost psychedelic glowing print on this classic Indian block print. Several colors layered on top of each other create a multi-layered pattern. Like an oriental rug...
The block print cloths are woven from durable, dense cotton and hand-printed with classic Indian patterns. Due to the sometimes slightly irregular print, they show unique vibrancy; each piece is handmade and a small one-of-a-kind item. Patterns and colors are applied layer by layer, creating ornaments with impressive color depth and complex patterns that are allowed to develop layer by layer. By the way, a stamp block is about 20 by 20 centimeters in size :)

The technique of printing textiles with wooden stamps is over 4000 years old and originated in the Indus culture. To this day, this traditional craft is mainly carried out in Rajasthan by small family businesses. Even the stamps are carved by hand, and the patterns are carefully guarded in each workshop :)
Irregularities in print and color are not flaws, but a quality feature of handmade production :) Each color is stamped individually and carefully layered, creating the multi-layered patterns. Each piece is unique!
