Crafts and makers

Bagru block printing

Bagru is a craft centre near Jaipur associated with block printing and distinctive patterns. Rajasthan Tourism describes Bagru's printing through geometric designs and earthy colours. The work is carried out by makers with their own methods and designs, so there is no single pattern that represents every workshop. Visitors can learn more by arranging a visit directly with a craft organisation or producer.

What to know

A visit to Bagru offers a closer look at the people and skills behind a textile craft. Seeing a printing process can help you understand why patterns vary and how a product's finish is made. It is also a good place to ask about natural dyes, materials and the time required for each stage of production.

Good to Know

Bagru is a separate destination outside Jaipur's central market area. Plan transport in advance and confirm workshop access before setting out. Ask makers about photography, group size and whether a demonstration is available on your date. When buying, request clear care instructions and a receipt.
