The Ajrakh Craft

Ajrakh is a celebrated textile tradition associated with Kutch, Gujarat, known for its intricate patterns, repeated motifs and rich natural colours. Artisans use hand-carved wooden blocks alongside a detailed process of printing, washing, drying and dyeing to create the depth and character of the textile.

The buta motif, often inspired by stylised flowers and natural forms, adds rhythm and balance to the design. Each wallet carries subtle variations in colour, print placement and texture, reflecting the individual character of handmade textiles.
