handicrafts indiaVillages of Jahota in Jaipur are renowned for the jahota hand block printing. It is supposed that Maharaja Jai Singh and his wife encouraged this art among the local artists. They equally took attention between the art and the people occupied in this field. Nowadays artists execute the work with all the hereditary skills from the ancestors. These artists primarily shape the design on the wooden blocks by way of their fine tools. Afterwards with the use of natural and chemical dyes they make the motif on the fabric. In this fashion savvy world the artists have started to design according to the demands of buyers and natural dyes have as well been substituted by chemical dyes. Jahota is famed for its chilani print, traditionally for bridal wear in certain communities.
