Hand block printed Kalamkari Bagru fabric comes from the village of Bagru in Rajasthan, where artisans have practiced the traditional mud-resist printing for over 400 years. Printed using natural dyes, the fabric is created by applying a hand-prepared mud resist with intricately carved wooden blocks. After dyeing, the resist is carefully washed away to reveal beautiful, distinct patterns.

As with any hand made item, imperfections are to be expected and should be regarded as part of the charm of this piece.
Natural dyes may be unstable, consider taking dye setting measures. Gentle hand washing separately in cold water recommended. Avoid soaking. Expect some bleeding of excess dye during first wash. A handful of table salt in the first couple of washes may help set dyes.
