Block printing is a revered technique in India's fabric industry, dating back centuries. Artisans meticulously hand-carve intricate designs onto wooden blocks, which are then dipped in natural dyes and stamped onto fabric. This method adorns textiles with diverse patterns, from floral motifs to geometrics. Rajasthan's Bagru, Gujarat's Ajrakh, and Andhra Pradesh's Kalamkari are renowned centers. Block printing preserves traditional craftsmanship, supports rural livelihoods, and offers eco-friendly production. Its fusion of heritage and innovation sustains India's vibrant textile heritage, captivating global fashion with its unique, handcrafted allure.
