Handkerchief Weight Pedana Kalamkari Hand Block Print ▪︎ Floral
The meticulous craft of Kalamkari requires the fabric to undergo 17 laborious steps to highlight the beauty of delicate patterns and the richness of natural dyes. There are skilled artisans appointed and assigned to handle various functions. From making the block to treating the cloth to printing to washing, approximately, eight to 10 craftsmen are involved in creating one yardage of Kalamkari fabric.
Handmade in the port town of Machilipatnam, in Andhra Pradesh, Kalamkari printed fabrics, were once known to the world as chintz.

We do our best to represent color accurately. Since monitors vary, we cannot guarantee the colors you see online will exactly match the colors of the fabric once it's in your hand. For color-specific projects, please contact us to request a swatch.
