Fabric(167)

Block printing is one of the wide spread techniques of printing on fabrics with inks and wooden blocks. The art form has been practiced by extremely skillful artisans for centuries in India. The wooden blocks are made of teak wood or sesame wood and are hand crafted by expert block makers. Block printing by hand is a slow process. It is, however, capable of yielding highly artistic results, some of which are unobtainable by any other method.
