Ajrakh Block Print 120s Mul Cotton Saree - Black Medallion

Ajrakh is one of the oldest block printing traditions still practised in India, and it takes days of repeated dyeing and washing to reach a black this deep. Red and indigo medallions sit across the body in rows, each one stamped by hand from a carved wooden block.

The 120s mul cotton underneath is fine and soft, so a print this bold never feels heavy. It works for a gallery afternoon or a long day at the desk, and it takes silver or oxidised jewellery far better than gold.
