Kozii is the result of many years of thorough research and travelling around the world, seeking to uncover exclusive materials, printing or weaving techniques, giving in this way birth to an organically born sustainable brand.
Amongst other processes used in our projects, Hand Block Printing remains – undoubtedly -, our very favorite star technique.
Woodblock printing on textiles is the process of printing patterns onto fabrics, usually of linen, cotton or silk, by means of incised wooden blocks. The drawings are hand carved into rosewood blocks which are then used as stamps to transfer the prints onto the fabrics.
It is necessary only to ink the block and bring it into firm and even contact with the cloth to achieve the desired print.
It is the earliest, simplest and slowest of all methods of textile printing. There is evidence it was practiced as early as the fifth century BC, with actual fragments found from as early as the fifteenth century in India, China and Japan.
When we use block printing, we we seek for a synergy between contemporary design, sustainable development and the revitalisation of traditional arts.

Even though block printing by hand is an extremely slow art form, it is capable of yielding highly artistic results, some of which unobtainable by any other method.
