A Set of 3 Indian Textile Print Blocks on Metal Stands

These wooden print blocks were once used to imprint textiles with sophisticated patterns. The blocks, which could be curved, linear, geometric, or floral in design, were used to apply wax to the cloth, preventing the absorption of color when the cloth was dyed. The wax was then removed by boiling the cloth and collected for reuse. The fabric would then be dyed with a second color. More options/styles available in the store.  Size Varies. Approximately 6"W x 1.5"D x 8"H. Price for set of 3.
