Hand Block Printed Products
Block Printing is an ancient textile technique that originated centuries ago in Rajasthan, India. Yasin Block Print is a company located near Chandelao, in the village of Pipar. It has been a family-run business for generations, employing highly skilled block printers using mud-resist printing. The process of making the print is very complex, involving many stages of printing, drying and dyeing. Yasin Block Print supplies Sunder Rang with block-printed fabrics printed with wooden hand blocks and dyed using natural vegetable dyes, such as turmeric, indigo and pomegranate. A block-printed fabric reflects the skill and craftsmanship of the printer making this art a unique and sophisticated craft with a personalised touch. Block printers are traditionally men, but Yasin has trained women in the craft too.
