This Kalamkari Bandana is a piece of living tradition, hand block printed in Andhra Pradesh, India using natural dyes made from pomegranate peel, iron scrap, turmeric, and jaggery. Wooden blocks chiseled from teak by master craftsmen stamp each pattern by hand, and the fabric is washed in the flowing waters of the river Krishna, a step that gives every piece its own depth of color. Lightweight and breathable, it's perfect for styling as a bandana, napkin, pet scarf, handkerchief, or however you please.
