Indian Block Print Cotton Papercut Red

A striking Bagru block print in red and a warm stone shade. Bagru, a small village in Rajasthan, 35 kilometres from Jaipur, is known for its hand block printing utilising traditional processes and natural colours. Bagru prints tend to be more simple with limited colours in comparison to Sanganer block prints which are more colourful with finer detail. Block printing is still practiced by the Chippa community, who have lived here for over 400 years.

Papercut is suitable for tops, and dresses and skirts with fullness.
