Description
| *Warm wood block print This is a lovely napkin/handkerchief with a rustic, warm print and lots of Indian charm! The fabric is firm and resilient. You will want to collect many of them in different patterns ^^. *Handmade crystals In India, there is a technique called wood block, which is made by hand-stamping hand-carved woodblocks. In Japan today, cloth is printed in the same way as newspapers are printed, but long ago, people in India, who did not have sophisticated printing machines, came up with the idea of woodblock printing in order to beautifully dye their own cloth with their own hands. This handkerchief is one of the products made by the old-fashioned method using wood block printing. The patterns of small flowers and vines that Indian women love, the light colors, and the slightly off-kilter patterns that only handmade fabrics can produce, remind us of the land far, far away. It may be a small piece of cloth, but it is filled with tradition and continental aesthetics. It is the result of careful handwork that takes a long time to complete, as the plates are changed every time the colors change. India is a treasure trove of beautiful cloth, but cloth made of woodblock has a special charm of its own. *How woodblock products are made Tilakita staff visited a local woodblock print factory. We hope you will take a look at this link to learn more about the process of making woodblock before you purchase. |

こちらは素朴で温かいプリントが可愛いく、インドならではの魅力がたくさん詰まった素敵なナフキン／ハンカチです！
ハリのある生地でしっかりしています。柄違いでたくさん集めたくなってしまいますね＾＾
■ハンドメイドの結晶
インドには手で彫った木版を、手でスタンプして作り上げるウッドブロックという技法があります。現在の日本では布はまるで新聞が印刷されるようにしてプリントされていきますが、その昔、高度な印刷機などを持たなかったインドの人々は自分たちの手で自分たちの布を綺麗に染めようと、木版を考えだしたのでした。
このハンカチはウッドブロックプリントを使って、昔ながらの手法で作られた一品です。インドの女性たちが大好きな小花やつる草の模様、淡い色彩、手作りならではのちょっとずれた柄が、はるか遠くの大地を思わせます。小さな布ですが、その中にも伝統と大陸の美意識が詰まっています。
色が変わるたびに版を交換するため非常に時間のかかる丁寧な手仕事の賜物といえます。インドは美しい布の宝庫ですが、ウッドブロッグでできた布はその中でも特別な魅力がありますね。
