For the comfort of your bedroom or the harmony of your living room, make any room more welcoming and meaningful with natural dyed Ajrakh print cushion covers.We’ll send you a handmade drawstring bag to tuck your covers into when it’s not in use, so you can protect the natural, vibrant dyes from exposure to the light.
The journey of each cushion cover starts from a tiny cotton seed. The base fabric, ‘kala cotton’ is handspun and handwoven from an indigenous variety of cotton plant that is native to the kutch region of Gujarat. Once woven the fabric is then printed with a traditional style of block printing called Ajrakh. Ajrakh uses hand carved wooden blocks to print natural dyes on organic cotton.
The process of making an Ajrakh is a long one, involving around fifteen distinct steps. The many processes of scouring, washing, printing, dyeing, and final washing can take up to three weeks to complete. Much of the beauty and depth of Ajrakh cloth comes from the intricacy of the imprint that is left by the artisan’s hand. Slight variations are to be celebrated.
