Block printing is an Indian textile tradition that dates back more than four millennia. Using hand-carved wood blocks dipped in ink, artisans carefully imprint lengths of vibrant red cotton with scrolling golden patterns. The cloth is laid in the sun to dry before being cut and transformed into this lightly quilted jacket. Button-front. Side vents. Jacket reverses to solid red.


Hand-printed in Jaipur, Rajasthan, India. 100% cotton. Women’s sizes S (4-6), M (8-10), L (12 -14), XL (16-18).


Dry clean.

Ruined after one wash

By Nat in the North

Verified Reviewer

Pros

  • BEAUTIFUL
  • Warm

Cons

  • Colour runs

Best Uses

  • Dress down
  • Dress up

Comments about Rajasthani Block-print Jacket:

I am gutted. I bought this jacket and wore it once. I got so many compliments. The colour and gold print amazing. I hand washed it in cold water with Woolite and the colour ran unevenly leaving dark patches of red and transfers of the gold pattern in odd places. It is now unwearable.

The care instructions should be changed to 'Dry clean only' and not hand wash.

    Rajasthani Block-Print Jacket

    By Jewelry Maker

    from Seattle, WA

    Verified Buyer

    Pros

    • Dressy
    • Pretty

    Cons

    • A bit large
    • Cut too straight
    • Sleeves too long
    • too stiff

    Best Uses

    • Dressy occasions

    Comments about Rajasthani Block-print Jacket:

    I haven't had occasion to wear this yet, as it's light-weight, not something for winter even as a jacket. It is quite pretty, with the gold print on red. Don't expect a true red, though, as it leans toward orange-red. The cut is boxy, more so than the picture in the catalog. This is typical of quilted jackets, but this one is very stiff. It's dry-clean only because the gold color is "painted on," so you can't wash it to soften it. That may or may not feel like an issue to someone else. I have short arms, so had to turn up the cuffs. They are quilted the opposite way, so that works just fine. It's very pretty, and I know I'll get compliments on this when it warms up enough to wear it.

        I returned this product.
        I put it on and it was shapeless, larger than dimensions given, and very stiff. It looked terrible on me.

          Should have double checked the sizing on this product. Thought it would fit, but need to return it for a larger size. Not much give in the material.

              Beautiful, but cost too much for the amount of material used.....it should sell for less....i expected a "thicker" finished product....which would have added to this beauty..
