Wax Batik Artisan in India

ECOlunchboxes has sourced the hand-printed fabrics for their line of unique lunchbags. Deep in the Gujarat deserts there is an ancient textile tradition, including hand-printed fabrics.

The Khatri craftsmen use wooden blocks, screens and wax batik techniques to create richly colored fabrics with traditional designs. The dyes used are a mix of both natural plant-based dyes and synthetic dyes for brighter colors. Scattered throughout the villages of the Kachchh region are printers carrying on their exquisite textile traditions.

It is here that the ECOlunchbag fabrics come from as we source at the ground level.
