MAYA cotton sarong with tribal patterns. The designs that decorate the sarong are made with handcrafted wooden stamps. A typical and traditional Indian workmanship for your ideal summer sarong. This is also a multi-purpose accessory, adaptable and easy to wear.
The stamping of the patterns as well as the production of the wooden stamp are entirely handmade. Furthermore, for multicoloured patterns, the printing process is done once for each colour: this means that for a 3-colour pattern, the fabric is printed 3 times over the entire surface.
In addition, this cotton sarong 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 colours, or printed not only with complex motifs depicting animals or plants but also checks and finally with various geometries and patterns.
This type of sarong is ideal to wear as
- swimsuit cover-up skirt
- swimsuit cover-up dress
- swimsuit cover-up tube dress
- one-shoulder dress
- beach towel
- wall hanging (ethnic decoration)
- summer and/or winter scarf

Block printing: a handcrafted process repeated by hand
Each sarong and scarf is created through a traditional process where the design is transferred onto the fabric using hand-carved and manually pressed wooden blocks.

The work 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 laid out on the workbench: a simple base, ready to welcome colour, rhythm, and repetition.

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

Finally, the fabrics are inspected, dried, and prepared. Small variations are not flaws: they tell the authentic character of handcrafted work.
