About the MALAIKA Brand:

"MALAIKA" means "angel" in Swahili. The brand is dedicated to showcasing the warmth of craftsmanship, drawing from traditional materials and techniques from Asia, Africa, South America, and beyond. MALAIKA celebrates the charm of block printing, hand embroidery, weaving, natural dyes, and tie-dye, using abundant natural materials to share the beauty of local cultures and artisanal skills.

Block Print:

Block printing is an Indian traditional technique that involves carving designs onto wooden blocks, then stamping each color onto fabric one at a time. This method, which has influenced printing techniques worldwide, is labor-intensive, with each color requiring additional steps. The slight imperfections like smudges and pattern shifts in block prints highlight the warmth and uniqueness of Indian craftsmanship.
