Kalamkari is the art of painting cotton fabrics with a kalam (pen) and kari (art), a sharp pointed bamboo stick padded with color.

The fabrics can be used for bedspreads and furnishing.
Baladarshan supplies also kalamkari fabric in bulk with a wide variety of designs. Different thicknesses are available so to be used for garments, accessories, furnishing.
