This antique Indian teak wood printing block is a beautifully preserved piece of history from Rajasthan, India, dating back to approximately 1930. Hand-carved by skilled artisans, it features an abstract pattern with perforated detailing that adds texture and depth to its design. The intricate carving highlights the artistry of traditional Indian block printing, making this an exceptional piece for both functional and decorative use. Measuring 15 x 15 x 7 cm (5.9 x 5.9 x 2.8 inches), this block is crafted from durable teak wood and remains in excellent condition despite its age.
Originally used for hand-block printing on fabrics and paper—a technique now largely replaced by mechanisation—this block can still be used for creative projects today. Simply dip it in paint or dye and press it onto your chosen surface to create stunning repeating patterns. Alternatively, it serves as a unique decorative item that adds character and charm to any space.
Each piece in our collection is personally sourced by a member of the Jardinopia team during their travels in Rajasthan, ensuring authenticity and uniqueness. This rare find is stored in the UK and ready for immediate shipment.
