At Anantalaya Silks, we believe in preserving and promoting India’s rich textile heritage. Among the gems of traditional craftsmanship we proudly offer is Ajrakh — a centuries-old hand block printing art known for its intricate patterns, natural dyes, and cultural depth.

The Process: A Labor of Love
At Anantalaya Silks, our artisans follow the authentic Ajrakh process that involves:
- Natural dyes like indigo, madder root, and turmeric
- Hand-carved wooden blocks for symmetrical, complex designs
- Multiple stages of washing, dyeing, resist printing, and drying
- A timeline that can stretch over 14–16 painstaking steps
This detailed craftsmanship ensures that every piece is reversible, long-lasting, and completely unique.
