india block printing.




"west elm produced this video after meeting hand-block printing artisans on a recent trip to india’s rajasthan. it is so amazing to watch as they intricately carve patterns out of teak blocks and create prints using richly colored pigment dyes." i particularly enjoy the "karate chop" when they are pressing the blocks on the fabric. (OK i know it's not really a karate chop...)
