‘D
o the earth a favour. Do not pollute
the environment. Use natural
dyes’ is our motto. We integrated
the practice of using natural dyes into our
traditional generations-old heritage of hand-
block printing. Our practice is reflective of
our respect for the environment and is a small
contribution towards honouring the earth by
reducing pollution, reviving the ancient Indian
tradition of natural dyes, and enhancing the
beauty of hand-block printed textiles.
Working with natural products is
more challenging but the results
are worthwhile especially with
hand-block printing.
