Ajrakh Block Print Craft :
The Khatri community, whose ancestors have been printing with wooden ajrakh blocks for centuries, migrated to Kutch from Sindh.

Stunning results are achieved through a process of hand printing, rinsing and sun drying. The different patterns of each block fit together into colorful designs.
Disclaimer : Please note that since this is a hand block printed fabric it may have some irregularities due to color bleeding or rubbing involved in traditional printing process
