Craft: Hand-Block Printing

One of the earliest and simplest methods of textile printing, Block printing is, very simply put, the printing of patterns on textile using incised wooden blocks. Block printing involves myriad steps, but the most important step is the preparation of the block which determines the quality and clarity of impressions. The block is then dipped in the desired dye and carefully placed adjacent to the preceding impression of the block as per the design. Sakhi gives a contemporary twist to traditional Kanchivaram by treating it with Hand Block Printing with motifs inspired by traditional elements.

* Please note the blouse worn by the model is available with a Sakhi saree and if you wish for a classic style please select from the Saree Finishing Packages. Please note there might be a slight colour variation.
