Ridhvara | Ajrakh Prints on Modal Silk

Ridhvara | Ajrakh Prints on Modal Silk

Experience the magic of slow craftsmanship with this pure modal silk saree, brought to life through the age-old art of Ajrakh hand block printing. At 6.3 meters long, it flows like poetry on fabric, timeless and bold.

Ajrakh cloth carries many meanings. The popular story amongst local printers is that Ajrakh means “keep it today.” It is also linked to azrakh, the Arabic word for indigo, a blue plant which thrived in the arid ecology of Kachchh until the 1956 earthquake. Ajrakh patterns use complex geometry to create starry constellations in indigo, madder, black, and white across lengths of cloth. The shapes and motifs of Ajrakh echo the architectural forms of Islamic architecture’s intricate jali windows and trefoil arches.
