Block printing has a 500 year-old tradition in the towns of Bagru and Sanganer in Rajasthan. The family tradition, the tactile nature of work and the fact that most of the work is done at home with the family, all combine to create a rich heritage of the block printing craft in India. Despite the pride in their work and a growing demand of their products, the artisans have a less than positive outlook. Poor work conditions, synthetics replacing natural materials and lack of improved technology are exposing the artisans to potential hazards - making them more vulnerable to sickness and injury. Combined efforts from Government, civil society and artisans are required to revive the hopes of thousands of families and make this craft, a lasting print.
