Barmeri handblocked print

Barmer in Rajasthan, is known for its prints of red chillies and trees featuring a blue-black outline, while Shikar and Shekhawat prints feature motifs of horses, camels, peacocks and lions.

Bold geometric prints are what set Barmer’s prints apart from the rest of Rajasthani textiles.

Additionally, unlike the light floral colours, Barmer fabrics show darker shades as it takes inspiration from Barmer’s location in the Thar Desert, where locals believe dark shades are cooler.
