Jaipur Flora Sanganeri Hand Block Printed 400 TC Premium 100% Percale Cotton (King, 108X108 in) Bedsheet

Khwab means dream. This king-size bedsheet is hand block printed in Sanganer, near Jaipur, by chhipa printers - the community that has carried this craft through generations of the same families. Every length is pressed block by block, by hand, onto percale cotton woven for a cool, crisp finish that gets softer with each wash.

The craft

Sanganer has printed cloth for over four centuries, and the chhipa printers who work there still cut their patterns into teak blocks by hand. Each colour in the design needs its own block, laid down in sequence across the full length of cloth — one printer, one block, one impression at a time. A single king bedsheet takes 6 hours at the table.

We use azo free dyes, which exclude the aromatic amine compounds restricted for skin-contact textiles. Colours are set by washing and sun-drying.

Why percale

Percale is a one-over-one weave - tighter and flatter than sateen, which is what makes it breathe. It sleeps cool in summers and in air-conditioned rooms, and it develops a soft, lived-in hand over the first few washes rather than pilling.
