Delta Tablecloth - Indigo/Brick Red

The Delta pattern features a striped triangular pattern in off-white and light indigo set against a deep indigo blue background. A scrolling floral border makes for a striking finish.

Dramatic and elegant, our range of indigo dyed tablecloths instantly create a table with a story. Layer them beneath your finest china, glassware and candles to impart an ambiance that is moody and yet welcoming, or leave them unadorned to elevate the simplest of meals. 

Our red, off-white and indigo dyed collection is made using a complex process called “Jahota” printing that produces subtle variations in color and pattern, lending depth and character to each piece. Printed on a smooth 100% cotton fabric, these versatile cloths also make stunning twin or twin-XL size bedspreads or can be draped over the back of a couch to give a room a decorative flair.

*Some color rub-off is to be expected in indigo dyed textiles over a few initial wash cycles. We recommend cold washing separately before use.

Process: This meticulous craft originates from the village of Jahota in Rajasthan and combines the “bagru” and “dabu” printing processes. The design is hand block printed in black and red colors that are typical in bagru printing.

The mud-resist or “dabu” process is then used in a 2-step process for indigo dyeing in two shades. The pattern that is not blue in the final design is covered entirely by carefully block printing over it with a dye-resistant mud paste. The fabric is then dusted with sand and dried in sunlight before dipping it gently into an indigo dye bath to achieve a light blue shade for the background. The pattern appearing in light blue is then blocked with the dabu, and the fabric is placed back in an indigo bath to get the deep blue background. The dabu is then removed, and all the colored patterns are revealed.
