At once bold and modern, as well as classic, the original design of this shawl is by Rajnandinee and Srabonti in India. The alabaster-hued tussar silk wrap is decorated with block printing techniques executed by hand that reveal black leafy shields among bands of magenta and rusty orange.
Hand block printing is a millenary art form believed to have spread throughout Asia during the 4th century AD. The desired composition is carved on wooden block with a chisel, hammer, file, nails etc. Printing involves laying out the fabric on flat tables and making the impressions with the previously carved blocks dipped in the desired dyes.

These items are so lovely, colorful, exuberant as to be worn for special occasions or even in rather sacred moments. Lovely casing and makes an outstanding gift. Thank you!

Im using this as a piece of showcase art work. I have it hanging over a screen- an elegant backdrop to a large Albany pottery vase. The colors of muted orange and purple almost sing out with balance and calm. Im loving what is gives to the space. (And Id post a photo but Im clueless how to do that) Thank you Rajnandinee and Srabonti!
