Blockwallah stamps [Blockwallah = 'Block' (Stamps) 'wallah' (Hindi for seller)] are intricately handcarved hardwood blocks by skilled artisans in rural India. The handcarving is done on sustainable Indian rosewood (sheesham). Although these stamps were originally designed to be used for textile printing, they are fun to use with playdough, clay, arts and crafts projects, cardmaking, scrapbooking, soapmaking and candlemaking.
Blockwallah is owned by a Finnish-Indian family company that works directly with rural Indian artisans to produce handcrafted wooden printing blocks from sustainable Indian Rosewood. Blockwallah strongly believes in ethical work practices as well as dignity of labor. Blockwallah empowers impoverished women in India by providing them with employment throughout the production process.
Blockwallah stamps are entirely handmade, and no two blocks are exactly alike. There may be minor imperfections but these add to the charm of your authentic artisan carved wood block stamp and should not be considered as defective.
