What makes Jaipur Handloomia bags different from mass-produced bags?

What is Sanganeri block printing?

Sanganeri block printing is a centuries-old hand block-printing craft from Sanganer, near Jaipur, using hand-carved wooden blocks and natural or azo-free dyes to stamp intricate floral and geometric patterns onto fabric, one layer of color at a time.

Are Jaipur Handloomia products eco-friendly?

Yes. Products such as our hemp backpack are made from natural hemp fiber, and our block-print textiles use cotton and traditional dyeing methods, making them more sustainable than synthetic mass-market alternatives.

What is a co-ord set?

A co-ord set (short for "coordinated set") is a matching two- or three-piece outfit designed to be worn together. Jaipur Handloomia co-ord sets are pure cotton and include a sleeveless printed top, matching wide-leg bottoms, and a separate pair of 3/4 sleeves you can add or leave off — so the same set works for both casual and more covered occasions.

What sizes do your co-ord sets come in?

Our cotton co-ord sets are available in sizes 38, 40, 42 and 44. These are bust measurements in inches — choose the size closest to your bust measurement, and size up if you prefer a looser, more relaxed fit. The wide-leg bottoms have a comfortable elasticated fit.

What is discharge printing?

Discharge printing is a technique where the fabric is dyed first, then a paste is printed onto it that removes (discharges) the colour in that area, leaving a soft pale pattern on a rich coloured background. Unlike prints sitting on top of the cloth, the pattern is part of the fabric itself, so it stays soft to the touch and doesn't crack or peel with washing.

How should I wash a cotton co-ord set?

Hand wash separately in cold water for the first two or three washes, as natural and discharge-printed dyes can release a little colour initially. Use a mild detergent, avoid bleach, and dry in shade rather than direct sunlight to keep the colours deep. A cool iron on the reverse keeps the print looking its best.
