Ajrakh, the Arabic word for Indigo dye, is a unique form of hand block printing done in the interiors of Gujarat. Ajrak craft products are made with natural dyes.The entire production of the products include both vegetable dyes and mineral dyes. Indigo is key dye.Ajrakh artisans use the age old Arabian geometric motif patterns in their creations. Ajrakh is an extremely laborious and a creative art form, however the older generations don’t want to pass this heritage to their siblings in the apprehension of this dying art due to the mechanization of printing processes.Roopantaran takes one small step to support this legacy of the Ajrakh printers.BUY AJRAKH THROWS HEREAJRAKH QUEEN INDIGO KANTHA THROWS Related ArticlesMore About AJRAKH
