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.
