Pareo - Ethnic Sarong in 100% artisan cotton - PEACOCK. Cotton pareo with tribal patterns. The designs decorating the pareo are made with handcrafted wooden stamps. A typical and traditional Indian craft for your ideal summer pareo. This is also a versatile, adaptable, and easily wearable accessory.
The stamping of the patterns, as well as the production of the wooden stamp, are entirely handmade. Furthermore, for multicolored motifs, the printing process is done once for each color: this means that for a 3-color motif, the fabric is printed 3 times over its entire surface.
Additionally, this cotton pareo with tribal patterns can also be used as a sarong, which is a large piece of cotton draped around the waist and worn as a skirt by men and women in many parts of Asia.
The fabric is often dyed with bright natural colors, or printed not only with complex motifs depicting animals or plants but also checks and various geometries and patterns.

Block printing: a handcrafted gesture repeated by hand
Each pareo and scarf is created through a traditional process in which the pattern is transferred onto the fabric with hand-carved and manually pressed wooden blocks.

The process begins with the preparation of the tools and carved blocks, each designed to leave a part of the design on the fabric.

The fabric is prepared and spread out on the work surface: a simple base, ready to welcome color, rhythm, and repetition.

The block is then pressed by hand, one step after another. The continuity of the pattern comes from the artisan's eye and experience.

Finally, the fabrics are inspected, dried, and prepared. Small variations are not defects: they speak to the authentic character of manual craftsmanship.
