Sufiyan Ismail Khatri uses traditional Ajrakh crafts to create hand-printed and naturally-dyed fabrics such as scarves, shawls, rugs, and tablecloths. Ajrakh's craft is over 4000 years old. Some traditional textiles have been found in the ruins of the city of Fostat in Egypt. Khatri comes from the Khatri community. Khatri means printer and the community is made up of artisans who do Ajrakh printing and natural dyeing. His ancestors practiced this technique on the banks of the Indus River in Sindh. For them, the ajrakh is a way of life and a means of learning. A unique feature of Ajrakh is a resist printing technique that uses gum arabic and lime paste on hand-carved blocks of wood, as well as the skillful use of wood stains and natural dyes to create natural gem-like shades that retain color.

iTokri Brings to you Beautiful Products with Ajrakh Prints this Festive Season 

Ajrak also referred to as Ajrakh, is a form of block printing practised widely in the Sindh region of Pakistan and Ajrakhpur in the Kutch region of India. This form of printing is generally practised on shawls and tiles. The designs and patterns that constitute Ajrakh printing are made from stamps. The process of block printing patterns with natural dyes using stamps is the crux of Ajrakh printing. Ajrakh printing dates back to the Indus Valley Civilization. It is continuing in the western part of India, that is, Gujarat and parts of Pakistan. Another comparable yet different form of block printing is Sajarak which is practised in South Punjab of Pakistan. While Sajarak constitutes printing cyan colors, Ajrakh employs the use of red and black colors.
