Product Info
This tablecloth is a hand printed tablecloth by artisans; this printing method is done using hand carved wooden blocks which are then dipped in color (each color therefore corresponds to a block/pattern).
Although the process originated in China, it has been used for centuries in India - in Rajasthan - for printing fabrics. The art consists in making the patterns overlap perfectly, but each piece has slight irregularities that make it unique. We are in the Japanese Wabi-Sabi, the beauty of imperfection!
This tablecloth is perfect for bringing the magic of India to your table: its green and blue floral patterns are dotted with small gold dots which symbolize Abundance but also Consciousness.
- Printed by hand using blockprint
- 100% cotton
- Wash at 30°C and separately recommended
Dimensions: 155 x 225 cm

Blockprint creations
Blockprinting is a completely artisanal work that makes each piece a unique creation. Slight irregularities in the patterns or shades are evidence of the manual and authentic manufacturing process. Far from being defects, these small imperfections add character and make each piece unique, bearing the unique imprint of the craftsman who made it, for a result that is both original and precious.
A complex creative process
The making of wooden blocks for Indian blockprinting is an art in itself. From selecting the wood to carefully carving the designs, each step requires great expertise and a keen eye for detail. The different types of blocks – from outlines to fills, borders and background details – each play a key role in creating the intricate and colourful designs that are characteristic of Indian blockprinting.
