The blocks

Once our designs have been created, wooden blocks are cut which separate the design into its different elements. This is because all the different colours, motifs and borders have to be printed separately for each product.

The printing

Next, the printing begins. The dyes are mixed and the tablecloths are created, building up the pattern in many layers until our design is fulfilled. This process can take up to several days.
