About hand block printing Each motif is carved into a wooden block, dipped in dye and pressed onto the cloth by hand, one repeat at a time – so no two metres are identical and slight variation in the print is the signature of the craft, not a flaw. Tjori’s block prints come from Rajasthan (Bagru, Sanganer) and Kutch ( Ajrakh ), on Kota Doria, cambric and cotton slub. Natural dyes soften slightly after the first wash; wash cold, inside out and separately the first time.

Look for slight misalignment where repeats meet and small variations in ink density – both are marks of hand printing. Will the colours run? Natural-dye prints may release a little colour on the first wash; wash separately once, cold, and they are stable after that. Can I return block-printed clothing? Yes, unused with tags within the return window; see the returns policy .
