Block printing such as Gamthi Print is achieved by engraving delicate  patterns on blocks of wood and then filling them with color. These  patterns are then pressed onto the fabric to create the desired look.
Craftsmen who work in block printing tend to only use teak wood mainly  because this type of wood has the perfect base of carving because it is extremely strong and does not get affected by external elements  such as water. As a result, a single block can be reused as many times as a craftsman may desire.

To start the process, the block of wood is first painted white before any patterns are carved on it. This helps the craftsmen grasp a better understanding of the contrasts that will be created once the print is
used. Various tools such as drills, bows and chisels are used to create the pattern.

Gamthi print is available in a variety of attires or accessories. This style of printing is used to make a host of Indian ethnic attire and @ Paisley it’s the Anarkalis, kurtis, chunris and more!

Silk garments are no longer limited to high-end designer labels or neckties. Everyday silk casual wear among women is very popular. It drapes, looks and feels great. But, like other fabrics, silk is susceptible to conditions of wear, stains, and color loss. So Let’s make a quick note of these CARE TIPS

Care Suggestions
Apply perfume, cologne, deodorant, and hair spray before dressing to prevent color loss and staining. Exercise great caution with household products. It’s almost a sure-fire way to ruin a terrific garment if left untreated. Never use chlorine bleach or products containing chlorine on silk. It will permanently change the color. Store garments in a dark area. Long exposure to sunlight or even
strong lights can cause streaks and fading.Blot, don’t rub silk when wet.
