Hand Block – Printing of Udaipur, Rajasthan

In Udaipur and Nathdwara the block prints are on saris, wraps, and quilt covers. The designs are religious in nature and are linked with Srinathji, a part of the Pichwai tradition. The prints on the cloth are done with sandal wood blocks which leave a perfume in the cloth. The main technique involves placing the block directly on the fabric for the design-transfer to be effected.
