Sanganer

What over-pairing does this note warn against at Sanganer?

Quick answer

At Sanganer, the planning mistake to avoid is: buying a screen print at block-print prices Summer midday is a bad time to judge colour. Visit one workshop. Ask what is hand-blocked and what is screen-printed.

Detailed answer

The study line for Sanganer is: Sanganeri and Bagru are separate GIs. Blue Pottery of Jaipur is another. Keep this confusion separate: Bagru is bolder. Sanganer is finer and floral. And keep this story separate from the record: Not every pink souvenir in Jaipur was printed in Sanganer.

Do not pair Sanganer with the outing this note warns against: buying a screen print at block-print prices

District Jaipur, region Dhundhar, hub Jaipur. Ask before you photograph a printer at work. A GI does not police every stall. Ask where the cloth was printed. Court or tradition named in the note: Jaipur’s craft belt.

Neighbours named with Sanganer: Jaipur; Bagru. Food, kept separate from the monument: Eat a real meal in Jaipur.
