This product was found on road side next to Hawa mahal and kept in different trays (not covered) according to the sizes and prices of it. The price varied from 20 - 150 rupee. ]]> 2018-09-12 23:58:53 UTC https://padlet.com/nehal_10292/qtj46ewv1agj/wish/280607873 nehal_10292 https://padlet.com/nehal_10292/qtj46ewv1agj/wish/280611613 The block purchased where small and of 20 rupee. This was  to show the difference between a carved block and a laser cut block. On the right is the handcrafted block as it has human error (lines are diagonal) and also roughness in spaces. Whereas if you see below , the block does not contain any roughness in the details (inside the circle), even though to immediate the craft they have chiseled around the corner just to show that it is carved.  ]]> 2018-09-13 00:21:38 UTC https://padlet.com/nehal_10292/qtj46ewv1agj/wish/280611613 nehal_10292 https://padlet.com/nehal_10292/qtj46ewv1agj/wish/280612608 Hand carved wooden block]]> 2018-09-13 00:27:31 UTC https://padlet.com/nehal_10292/qtj46ewv1agj/wish/280612608 nehal_10292 https://padlet.com/nehal_10292/qtj46ewv1agj/wish/280614207 The sad reality is that both of these products - the craved and the laser printed ones are being sold in the same price. The artisans who get payed only 350 rupee for 12 hours is making one small block for 3-4 hours and now the same block pattern can come out in just few minutes of laser printing. Thus this may eventually lead to the loss of the craft.  ]]> 2018-09-13 00:36:36 UTC https://padlet.com/nehal_10292/qtj46ewv1agj/wish/280614207 nehal_10292 https://padlet.com/nehal_10292/qtj46ewv1agj/wish/280616863 Laser cutting of wooden blocks ]]> 2018-09-13 00:49:42 UTC https://padlet.com/nehal_10292/qtj46ewv1agj/wish/280616863 nehal_10292 https://padlet.com/nehal_10292/qtj46ewv1agj/wish/280617763 They did not provide me with a packaging as the product was small.

This is how Anokhi places its products. ]]> 2018-09-13 00:55:51 UTC https://padlet.com/nehal_10292/qtj46ewv1agj/wish/280618174 nehal_10292 https://padlet.com/nehal_10292/qtj46ewv1agj/wish/280621662 Placement of Anokhi product]]> 2018-09-13 01:14:09 UTC https://padlet.com/nehal_10292/qtj46ewv1agj/wish/280621662 nehal_10292 https://padlet.com/nehal_10292/qtj46ewv1agj/wish/280622018 There can be a design exploration team who can look into new themes and develop new prints accordingly. Also designers can work with these artisans to form something new.
