Kalamkari literally refers to the artistry of the pen. It originated and thrived in southern India, where the titular pen was a tamarind stick. The Persian christening of the art we know as Kalamkari today is thanks to the Mughals, who were great fans of it. The colors used in Kalamkari are made from natural ingredients, such as leaves, vegetables, roots, and iron mineral salts.
