A Bagru block print in black. 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.
Black Semi Circle Block is suitable for tops, and dresses and skirts with fullness.

This fabric is hand dyed. For the couple of washes, place the fabric in the washing machine drum at 30 or 40 degrees with a handful of table salt. This will fix the dye to prevent it from running.
As this cloth is handmade, it is susceptible to irregularities in the weave or print, this is all part of its charm and are not classed as flaws.
