These one-of-a-kind hand carved wooden print blocks, also known as caps or tjaps, are used to hand print traditional fabrics using both the lost wax process of dyeing. We source these now difficult to find antiques from India, Nepal and Indonesia. They are perfect as a decorative piece but can also be used to print fabric and paper, and impress clay!
