A hand carved Indian wooden printing block, made in Jaipur on a Fairtrade project. All our printing blocks can be used to hand print your own fabrics, papers & cards.
All of our wooden printing blocks can be used to hand print your own fabric, paper, card & clay.
- Printing on fabric: use a fabric paint or other medium to ensure the design is totally washable. Our fabric paints require heat setting with an iron to make permanent.
- Printing on paper & card: you can use a wide variety of paints. Ink pads aren't always wet enough to use with the printing blocks so we advise using paint such as acrylic.
- To ensure you get a good print, use a square piece of sponge or a dabber to apply your paint/dye/medium and a foam printing mat (or something soft) underneath the item.
Need to know
Our Indian wooden printing blocks are hand carved on a Fairtrade project in Jaipur, India and are made using a sustainable wood known as sheesham. The designs are traced and carved onto the wood. The blocks are then left to soak in mustard oil for several days, this preserves the wood making it non-absorbent, and will then mean your block lasts a lifetime of crafting.
Size Approx: 4cm x 2.5cm

Hi, I am Maggie the founder of The Indian Block Print Co. I recognised the capacity of block printing to allow anyone to create something beautiful regardless of background, and in doing so build confidence and wellbeing.
We work directly with a team of craftsmen in India. The team have been regularly invited to family weddings, receive updates from their families and give back to the industry by supporting the development of a new block carving workshop in rural India.
