Pink spirals and pale blue sprays run over a lime green silk that lifts in daylight.

Why this piece

  • Genuinely hand block printed, never screened or machine printed
  • Colour-fast: the pink will not run into the green on the first wash
  • Fringed edging on the top piece, printed to a wave along the roll edge

The print

The spirals repeat at a steady, medium rhythm, and between them sit single blue floral sprays that break the pattern up rather than crowd it. It reads graphic from a distance and detailed up close, which is why this one photographs flatter than it wears.

Along the roll edge the block changes to a wave, so the finished dupatta already carries an edge treatment without any extra trim.

Wearing it

Lime is a daylight colour. Stitch it as a straight kurta with the bottom for office and daily wear, or add a fitted sleeve and a plain gold-toned jhumka for a daytime function. Keep jewellery warm-metal and minimal; the print is doing the talking.

Most block print you find at this price is cotton. Getting the same genuine hand-block craft on a silk that drapes and holds a sheen is the reason to take this one over a cotton set.

  • Care: dry clean the first time, then a gentle cold hand wash
  • Dispatch: Dispatched the next working day.
  • Collection: Bagiya

Small shifts in the print, a motif set a little off its neighbour, a shade that deepens where the block pressed twice: these are the marks of a hand at work, not flaws in the cloth.
