Hand block printing on cotton, from the towns of Sanganer and Bagru near Jaipur.
Understand
Printing communities in Sanganer and Bagru have produced hand-printed textiles for generations; both crafts carry geographical-indication tags.
Printers carve designs into wooden blocks, then stamp them repeatedly by hand onto cloth — Bagru is known for natural dyes and mud-resist printing, Sanganer for fine floral prints on white grounds.
