Special Technique/Craft: Ajrakh
The authentic Ajrak is printedby a method known as resist printing. This form of printing is done by hand with hand-carved wooden blocks. Several different blocks are used to give the characteristic repeated patterning. Traditional ‘Ajrakh’ involves various stages of dyeing and resist printing using natural dyes and mordants, Indigo, madder and black being the primary colours that are used for dyeing. Ajrakh patterns follow a concept of symmetry with intense jewel like colors.
