Choosing a Hand Block Printed Textile Manufacturer is a different decision from buying off a shelf. You are not just picking a product. You are picking the people who carve the blocks, print the cloth and pack the order that arrives in your warehouse or boutique.
Jaipur has printed cloth by hand for centuries, and today its workshops supply brands, retailers, designers and hotels around the world. This guide explains how the process works, what we can make for you, and how wholesale block print textiles, custom designs and private label orders are handled at Bohoblockprinted, so you know exactly what to ask before you place an order.
Why Jaipur Is the Heart of Hand Block Printing
Rajasthan's block-printing tradition is centuries old, and the Jaipur region is its best-known home. Printing centres around the city, including Sanganer and Bagru, built their reputation on wooden-block floral and geometric motifs on cotton. Skills passed down through families are why buyers search for Jaipur block printing rather than generic "Indian prints."
That heritage matters commercially too. Block printing here is a local ecosystem of block carvers, printers, fabric suppliers and exporters, which gives buyers room to adjust a motif, colourway or size without rebuilding a supply chain from scratch.
We work from Jaipur, Rajasthan, with skilled artisans and small production teams. The result is a range that keeps the character of the craft while meeting the packing and shipping needs of buyers abroad.
How a Hand Block Printed Textile Manufacturer Works
Every piece follows the same five-stage route, which is also a useful checklist when you compare suppliers. Our production process runs as follows.
Block Carving
Artisans carve each design into a wooden block by hand. One motif can need several blocks, and the quality of the carving decides how crisp the final print looks.
Hand Printing and Natural Drying
The printer presses the inked block onto cotton or linen, placing each stamp by eye.
Printed fabrics are then dried naturally to preserve colour and quality. Small variations in pattern and shade are part of the craft, not a defect, so it helps to explain this to your own customers.
Inspection, Packing and Shipping
Every product is inspected before packing, and custom labelling is available. Orders are packed for shipping to businesses and customers abroad, and we confirm international shipping and customs guidance before dispatch.
What You Can Source: Home Linen, Table Linen, Fashion and Accessories
Our catalogue covers five product families, made from premium cotton and linen fabrics:
• Home linen: duvet covers, quilts, linen curtains and bedding sets.
• Table linen: tablecloths, napkins and runners for layered dining.
• Fashion: kaftans, sarongs and bandanas.
• Accessories: canvas tote bags and quilted bags.
• Fabric by the yard: block printed fabric for designers and makers who sew in-house.
Catalogue requests can cover fabric bases and print direction, which helps you build one cohesive collection across several categories.
Wholesale Orders: How Bulk Buying Works
We supply boutiques, retailers, interior designers, hotels, wedding planners and brands worldwide. For bulk orders, the process is straightforward:
1. Send an inquiry through the wholesale inquiry form, WhatsApp or email, stating product type, fabric, quantity and destination country.
2. Agree samples and specifications. Minimum order quantity depends on product type, fabric, print complexity, sampling and packaging needs, so no single number fits every order.
3. Receive a quote and a realistic lead time for your order.
4. Production, quality inspection and packing.
5. Shipping, with customs guidance confirmed before dispatch.
The more detail you share in step one, the faster you get accurate answers.
Custom Orders and Private Label
Many buyers want something that does not exist on anyone else's shelf. We support:
• Custom prints and colourways, with custom block printed fabric developed around your design brief.
• Custom sizes, set through measurement specifications, approved samples and written confirmation.
• Private label textiles with custom labels and custom packaging for brands, boutiques, retailers and wholesalers.
• Buyer-specific product identification to fit your own catalogue and stock system. If you are developing a new range, start with the print direction and fabric base, then request a sample before committing to volume. Because every piece is handmade, a sample is the best way to agree colour, scale and finish.
How to Choose the Right Manufacturer
A good supplier answers specific questions with specific answers. Use the list below before you commit to any order, with us or anyone else.
Questions to Ask a Hand Block Printed Textile Manufacturer
• Can I see a sample before ordering in volume?

• Which fabrics are used, and how are prints dried and inspected?
