All About Ajrakh

Ajrakhpur

The Ajrakh block printing tradition is known for its complex, yet elegant symmetry of geometric patterns. Ajrakh means “Aaj-ke-din-rakh” in Hindi, that would be ‘keep it for a day’ in English. It is also said that the name perhaps originates from “Azraq”, the Arabic word for ‘blue’, the predominant colour in Ajrakh whose specimens were found as far away as Egypt and Babylon who enjoyed great trade ties with India.

Get to know about the laborious journey of Ajrakh which involves a sixteen step process of washing, dyeing, printing, and drying in an Ajrakh Block Printing Workshop with a master artist.
