A celebration of textures and techniques, this brilliantly designed cushion cover is spruced block printing and stellar threadwork! Crafted from wool and cotton, it is a picture of sheer elegance and an ideal pick for urban spaces. It also features a concealed zip closure at the back for convenience. With careful needlework all along, the hand embroidery is intricate and exquisite. Practiced in India for eons, hand block printing is an art which calls for steady movement and meticulous hand and eye coordination. The process starts with a master craftsman tracing a motif onto a wooden block which is then carved with the help of hammers, chisels and drills. These wooden blocks are dipped into oil for a week which helps prevent them from cracking when exposed to dry conditions. The fabrics used are pre-washed by the artisans, dyed with a base color and finally laid flat for printing. The wooden block is firmly pressed into the dye and stamped onto the fabric to create a stunning print. Once the dye dries off, the block print fabric is washed and dried in the sun. The creation process may be unhurried as compared to its machine-made equivalent; however, the final product bears that unique artisanal punch of exclusivity!. Color : Multicolor.
