Jabbar Khatri was born into the traditional Khatri family in Dhamdka, a small village in Gujarat. While his grandfather was originally a block printer, his father left this traditional work due to an irregular income. The demand for traditional craft work fell as the Indian economy opened its doors to new markets a few decades ago. Because of this, many craftsmen, like Jabbar Khatri's father, left their traditional work to work in factories. Jabbar Khatri was also sent off to Mumbai to work in a retail store after he finished studying for his 10th grade exams. Growing up in the rural landscapes of Kutch, Jabbar Bhai did not enjoy working in an urban environment. The distance from his community, the isolated work environment in a bustling city, and the lack of an independent identity were breaking him each day, piece by piece. After much contemplation, Jabbar Bhai made the decision to move back home. He joined a Euro tile factory in his hometown for a few years before the unit closed down and left him unemployed. Jabbarbhai felt that it was best that he returned to his ancestral work of block printing, which would soon turn out to be a profitable business for him. Since he was not a skilled artisan, he trained under a few well-known block printers to master the craft and understand the market. Finally, in 2015, he started his own Ajrakh printing and dyeing unit. Today, Jabbar Bhai is an independent artisan with a small team of ten craftsmen. He works with both cotton and silk materials and makes garments, accessories, and home furnishings out of them.

Silk is a natural fiber renowned for its lustre, strength and durability, and has a long history of trading worldwide. Silk is synonymous with luxury due to its high cost, softness and elegant appearance, and is a popular fabric in high-end fashion and haute couture designs.
Silk is a natural fibre produced by insects as a material for nests and cocoons. Various types of insects produce silk, including silk moths, beetles, bees, bumblebees, wasps, and weaver ants.
There's a reason good quality silk can last a lifetime. For such thin and light fabrics, silk is very durable. Silk threads are four times stronger than steel threads of the same thickness. Hundreds of years ago, the Mongols also made armour from silk.
Silk satin has the upper hand and is a popular choice for dresses to add elegance and charm. Made of coarse and short fibre, it is firm to the touch, lightweight and airy.
