The word ‘Ajrakh’ (or ‘Ajarakh’) is derived from the Arabic word azrak, meaning indigo blue, which is the predominant color of these block-printed textiles originating from the Sind region, now part of Pakistan. Ajrakh holds a significant place in Sindhi culture, with the Sindhi cap, or Sindhi topi, featuring Ajrakh print and mirror or gemstone work, often given as an honorary gift to guests, allowing them to appreciate Sindhi culture.

Apart from Sindhi topis, garments adorned with Ajrakh—patterned in intense colors, such as rich crimson and deep indigo, with white and black often used as outlines or highlights—are popular within the Sindhi community, and include turbans, lungis and waist or shoulder sashes for men, and dupattas, salwars, and sarees for women. Ajrakh fabric is also used for household items such as makeshift swings for children and quilts. Sindhi Muslim men, in particular, wear Ajrakh garments during marriage and religious festivals. The Ajrakh craft form is also highly patronized by local nomadic pastoralist and agricultural communities, such as the Rabaris, Maldharis, and Ahirs, who prefer wearing the hand-crafted textiles as part of their traditional costumes.

Also the Hindu communities of western Rajasthan and the Tharparkar district—the largest district in the eastern Sindh region, known for its centuries-old interfaith harmony and peaceful coexistence, and home to the largest Hindu population in Pakistan—wear a similar type of block-printed fabric called Malir. While Ajrakh is renowned for its intricate geometric patterns, Malir features predominantly floral and nature-inspired designs, with red as the dominant background color and black patterns on it. Both Ajrakh and Malir prints are culturally significant, serving different communities within the region and reflecting the rich diversity of their traditions. Read more

Ajrakh Block Print from Sindh Pakistan

A graceful blend of silk and cotton interspersed with silver and golden zari, celebrated for its soft tones, muted translucent sheen, and breathable lightweight texture!

Chanderi is a small town in the Ashok Nagar district of Madhya Pradesh, renowned for its finely crafted Chanderi sarees, handwoven by the Koli weavers who have been practicing the craft since the 13th century and have perfected it over generations. Historically, this weaving tradition has received admiration and support from the Mughals, Rajputs, and later from the royal Scindia family.

Initially, Chanderi weaving utilized only cotton yarn, which was ideal for daily wear in hot summers. Later, the incorporation of silver and golden zari threads for borders and motifs added a touch of opulence, enhancing the aesthetic appeal of the sarees. In the 1930s, the introduction of Japanese silk to replace cotton warps transformed Chanderi weaving, resulting in the creation of the distinctive fabric we recognize today. Notably, Chanderi weavers used raw silk that does not undergo the degumming process (known as flature yarn), retaining the raw glue. This method prevents yarn breakage during weaving and imparts Chanderi with its unique sheen and texture. Read more
