A Bagru block print in cobalt blue and ecru. Looks like small lemons! 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.

Cobalt Lemons is suitable for tops, and dresses and skirts with fullness as well as home projects like small curtains or scatter cushions.
