Sanganeri hand-block printed fabric

Sanganeri is the fine end of Rajasthani block printing. Where Ajrakh is geometric and deep-toned, Sanganeri is known for delicate floral repeats — small, precisely carved motifs printed in clear colours on a pale ground, traditionally on the cotton woven around Sanganer, near Jaipur.

Most of the range is handwoven cotton, with a small number of silk lengths. It is sold by the running metre, as 2.5 metre ready-to-stitch pieces and as leftover swatches — the unit is stated on each product page.

Because these are woven by hand, slight irregularities in the weave and small colour shifts between pieces are normal. They are the signature of a handloom, not a flaw.
