Jahota Chakoli Red Tablecloth
Description
Jahota is a complex printing and dyeing process which originated in Rajasthan.
The fabric is block printed with black, red and ochre natural dyes, then printed again with dabu, the mud resist paste which blocks out the ochre and red motifs. After drying in the desert sun the fabric is dipped in the indigo vat. The result is a shimmering textile full of rich depth and color.
100% cotton
52”x52”
Made in India
Care: Hand or machine wash cold separately and delicately with a gentle pH neutral liquid soap. Do not wring. Line dry in shade. Steam iron if desired.
About Antonia Textiles:
We are pleased to present our first limited edition collection of Antonia Textile table linens, designed by Antonia in her studio and dyed and printed in the village of Bagru in Rajasthan. Each stencil motif is carved into a wood block by master artisans. Antonia collaborates with the 6th generation printing families from the Studio Bagru collective to create a stunning line of versatile cotton tablecloths and napkins. We offer four natural dyes, typical of the region: organic indigo, kashish, a mineral-based gray, madder red or ochre, made from pomegranate, turmeric or teak flowers. Each pattern can be mixed and matched to create an eclectic festive table anytime of the year!
