Block Print Pareo

There are many ways to wear a pareo. Whether you simply drape it around your neck or try one of our three favorite ways shown here you are destined to get many compliments. We use the softest hand blocked Indian cotton. Hand blocking is an ancient and beautiful method of textile printing. First wooden blocks are hand carved with intricate details on them. Skilled artisans then dip these blocks in all natural vegetable dyes and manually print the entire length of the fabric. The block is changed and a different color is chosen. This process is repeated several more times before the fabric is completed and takes its final bath in a solution that sets the dye and is moved to the drying yard. All fabric used is hand selected by 1926 exclusively and each piece is hand finished. All products in this collection are ethically sourced using skilled artisans in Jaipur. Given the nature of the creation of this accessory, slight “imperfections” and variations in color are a part of the artistry of each piece.
