The Sindhi Ajrak Block Printed Premium Cotton Shawl is a masterpiece of traditional craftsmanship, bringing together centuries-old techniques and cultural heritage. Ajrak, a textile with a rich history dating back to the Indus Valley civilization, has been a symbol of identity and pride for the people of Sindh. This shawl showcases the exquisite craftsmanship of hand-block printing, a process that has been passed down through generations. The cloth undergoes 21 stages of meticulous preparation, including sun-baking, hand-block printing, and the use of natural dyes like indigo and madder to create its beautiful, earthy tones.

The Sindhi Ajrak has been worn as turbans, cummerbunds, dupattas, and shawls throughout history, and this modern adaptation honors that legacy while offering a versatile, high-quality piece for your wardrobe.
