About Craft

For India, block prints hold a place of pride, the age-old craft of dyeing and colouring a fabric using wooden blocks has been perfected over generations.

The most treasured and time-honoured techniques of block printing from Jaipur are the Sanganer and Bagru techniques of Block Printing.

While they are both traditional block prints, they can be distinguished based on the colour schemes and design styles.

Sanganer prints date back to over 500 years and gained immense popularity during the 16th-17th century when the East India Company began exporting them to European countries.

The characteristic trait of this technique is that it uses a pure white base fabric on which delicate and detailed floral trellis patterns are printed. The finesse and intricacy of the foliage prints (buttas) are inspired by the vibrant and vivid roses, lotuses, sunflowers, lilies, and marigolds.

The artisans of Sanganer employ a special technique called 'calico printing' where the outlines are first printed, then filled in and repeated in diagonal sections.

We, at Indian Tijori™ are excited to promote India’s rich culture of crafts & traditions and thereby bring to you a collection of Sanganer craft of hand block in sarees, unstitched suit sets & dupattas handmade with love by our talented artisans from Rajasthan!
