Bagru saree is a traditional hand-block printed saree that originates from Bagru, a small town located in the Jaipur district of Rajasthan, India. Bagru sarees are known for their beautiful and intricate block prints that are made using natural dyes and traditional printing techniques.
The process of making Bagru sarees involves several steps. First, the fabric is washed and soaked in a mixture of water and myrobalan (a natural fruit-based mordant) to prepare it for printing. Next, the fabric is printed with the desired block pattern using wooden blocks that have been carved with the design. The printing is done using natural dyes that are derived from plants, such as indigo, madder, and turmeric.
After the printing is complete, the fabric is washed to remove any excess dye and then dried in the sun. The final step is to iron the fabric to set the print and give it a smooth finish.
Bagru sarees are typically made from cotton or silk, and they come in a variety of colors and designs. They are known for their durability and are often worn for special occasions such as weddings and festivals.
In addition to sarees, Bagru printing is also used to make a variety of other textiles such as bedspreads, tablecloths, and cushion covers. The traditional art of Bagru printing has been passed down through generations of artisans, and it continues to be an important part of Rajasthan’s rich cultural heritage.
There are several different types of Bagru sarees that are popular in Rajasthan. Some of the most common ones are:
- Dabu Bagru Sarees: These sarees are made using a combination of Dabu (a mud-resist printing technique) and Bagru printing. The sarees have a unique texture and a rustic look.
- Sanganeri Bagru Sarees: These sarees are made by combining Sanganeri (another style of hand-block printing) and Bagru printing. They are known for their intricate designs and bright colors.
- Indigo Bagru Sarees: These sarees are made using natural indigo dye and Bagru printing. They come in shades of blue and are known for their simple yet elegant designs.
- Bagru Hand loom Sarees: These sarees are made using handloom weaving techniques and Bagru printing. They are known for their fine texture and intricate designs.
- Bagru Bandhani Sarees: These sarees are made using the Bandhani (tie-dye) technique and Bagru printing. They have a unique look that is a combination of the two techniques.
Each type of Bagru saree has its own unique characteristics and is prized for its beauty and craftsmanship.
