Blue and White Mud Resist Striped Block Print Cotton Shawl, "Dabu Blue"
Pacific blue alternates with white on this handcrafted cotton shawl to evoke dawn flowers. Aftab works in the ancient Rajasthani dabu print technique to craft a beautiful shawl. Printing blocks are dipped in a mixture of mud, which is stamped onto the cloth to create the motifs. When dry, the fabric is dipped in a bath of indigo dye, thus dabu is known as a mud resist print.
Because of their handcrafted nature, no two dabu prints are ever identical.

"PERFECT IN EVERYWAY"
Gorgeous cotton shawl. I love the length and width so much! Its the perfect size to wrap myself covering the parts of me that get a chill. [Most other shawls are much shorter and half as wide.] ALSO, I LOVE the mesh-like bag it came in - beautiful! I like this bag so much more than the bags my purchases usually come. I never keep those bags. THIS ONE ILL KEEP! HIGHLY RECOMMEND.

"Beautiful Dress"
I love this dress! It arrived incredibly fast - I was quite surprised, actually. The dress is soft, fits to perfection, and the colors are just so pretty. I love how it feels - in the heat it just floats. The dress appears to be well made and I anticipate wearing it for many years to come. Thank you!!!
