BLOCK PRINTING IN INDIA

 
There are many block printing workshops in India.  These are photos from various dye studios and workshops. 


   
                           The tables are padded.


   
 This frame is used to hold the dye.  There is a bamboo rack inside that is covered with fabric it makes it easier to charge up the block with dye.
