Organic Cotton Sheet - Kalamkari Moonlit Fleur

View all pieces in this print.

The term Kalamkari is derived from "kalam" pen, and "kari" work. The original kalamkaris had fine black lines drawn with a stylus. Gradually the process evolved from using a pen to printing with hand-carved wooden blocks. Today’s kalamkaris feature the same beautiful aesthetic and motifs made with natural dyes on light backgrounds.

Part of the beauty of kalamkari cloth lies in fact that each block is placed by the artisan’s hand - what is left behind is an imprint of personality and character. Slight variations are to be celebrated.
