Block printing, one of the most popular and widely-used styles in Asian countries, is said to have originated in China approximately 4,000 years ago. Considered to be one of the slowest methods of textile printing, this ancient practice includes using a carved piece of wood to imprint designs on fabrics like cotton, silk, linen, etc.  

While block printing almost always dominates the ethnic and contemporary fashion industry, it's becoming a trend in the home decor arena too! And not just in Rajasthan! More and more design experts and interior designers are infusing this print into modern homes. From bedsheets to table runners - these beauties instantly add a chic ethnic yet minimal touch to your space. 

We've rounded up a bunch of brands that have jumped onto this bandwagon to offer classy block printed home furnishings.
