Perfect for living rooms, reading corners and sun drenched Australian patios that love the feeling of being close to nature.

Care: Cold hand wash only. Dry in shade to preserve the natural dyes. Do not wring or bleach. Iron on low heat inside out.

Why it's special: Jahota mud-resist printing is one of India's rarest and most endangered craft traditions. The mud paste technique means every print carries the mark of the earth it was made from, a level of authenticity that no digital print or machine process can ever replicate. 150 hours per piece. Real hands. Real craft.

Jahota printing comes from a small village near Jaipur, known for its bold, folk-inspired motifs and earthy colour palette.
Artisans hand-carve wooden blocks and print each layer by hand, often using natural dyes and mineral pigments.
The designs carry a rustic, rhythmic charm, floral vines, geometric borders, and patterns rooted in Rajasthan’s countryside.
Every metre is printed slowly, sun-dried, washed, and sometimes reprinted for depth.
The slight variations, overlaps, and softness of colour are the true markers of Jahota’s handmade character.
A craft that feels grounded, warm, and beautifully imperfect, just as tradition intended.
