What Crimson, Violet and Magenta Mean Together
Crimson is the bandhani — the deep vivid crimson of the most specifically Rajasthani tie-dye tradition. Bandhani tradition: bandhani (from Sanskrit: bandha — 'binding' — the most specifically Rajasthani and the most comprehensively Gujarati tie-dye textile tradition — the most immediately internationally recognizable North Indian tie-dye technique — involving the most precisely knotted and the most carefully bound small dots of fabric — tying with the most thin and the most precisely knotted cotton or silk thread to resist the most completely saturated dye bath — creating the most characteristic and the most immediately beautiful tiny circular resist patterns across the most comprehensively dyed textile surface) is the most immediately internationally famous and the most extensively documented of all the North Indian tie-dye traditions — producing the most immediately beautiful and the most specifically Rajasthani of all the Indian resist-dye fabrics: the bandhani saree and bandhani dupatta are the most immediately internationally associated and the most specifically Rajasthani craft objects in the global Indian fashion market. The Jaipur tradition: the most immediately important and the most comprehensively skilled bandhani textile production centers in Rajasthan are: Jaipur (the most immediately internationally famous and the most comprehensively historically royal — the 'Pink City' — the capital of Rajasthan — and the most important center of the most elaborate and the most specifically Rajput-court-associated bandhani production); Sikar (the most immediately important secondary bandhani center — the most specifically known for the most delicately knotted and the most finely detailed bandhani designs on the most precious silk sarees); and Bikaner (the most specifically known for the most elaborately colored and the most immediately vivid bandhani production in the most dramatic and the most immediately Rajasthani desert context).

Rajasthani block printing: the Rajasthani block-print tradition (the most immediately internationally famous and the most comprehensively documented of all the Indian textile block-print traditions — centered on the most important craft villages of Sanganer and Bagru — both within approximately 20-30 km of Jaipur — the most immediately internationally famous and the most specifically Rajasthani of all the Indian textile craft export traditions) produces the most immediately beautiful and the most comprehensively internationally distributed of all the Indian printed textile fabrics. The indigo-resist technique: the most specifically important and the most immediately dramatically beautiful of the Bagru block-print techniques — the dabu-resist indigo printing (the most specifically Bagru and the most comprehensively Rajasthani of all the Indian indigo-resist textile techniques — using the most carefully prepared dabu paste — a mixture of clay, lime, and the most specifically Rajasthani gum arabic — applied by the most precisely carved wooden block to create the most specific resist patterns before the most complete immersion of the most fully prepared cotton fabric in the most carefully maintained traditional indigo vat — creating the most immediately beautiful and the most specifically deep vivid violet-to-indigo resist-pattern fabric of any Indian regional textile tradition). Magenta is the rani-pink — the pure vivid electric magenta of the most specifically Rajasthani court textile color.

The five craft zones: Rajasthan's textile craft traditions are organized most comprehensively by the most specific regional specialization: (1) Jaipur zone (bandhani, block printing, gem-set jewelry textiles — the most immediately internationally famous and the most comprehensively luxury-market-oriented); (2) Jodhpur zone (blue pottery, lac lacquerwork textiles, the most specifically Marwari embroidery — the most immediately craft-tourist-visited); (3) Barmer zone (the most specifically Kutch-influenced and the most immediately folk-art-oriented embroidery traditions — the most comprehensive geometric embroidery vocabulary of any Rajasthani district); (4) Bikaner zone (the most specifically Marwari merchant class textile traditions — bandhani, brocade weaving, and camel leather embroidery); (5) Udaipur zone (the most specifically Mewar royal tradition textile — the most elaborate pichwai cloth painting tradition — the most immediately Vaishnava devotional and the most comprehensively pictorial of all the Rajasthani textile art forms).

- Leheriya (from Hindi: leher — 'wave' — the most specifically Rajasthani and the most immediately internationally distinctive wave-pattern resist-dye technique — the most comprehensively Rajasthani of all the specific regional tie-dye traditions — distinct from bandhani in using diagonal rather than circular resist-tying) is produced by: rolling the most carefully prepared silk or cotton fabric diagonally — on the bias — into the most tightly wound tube; binding the most precisely spaced and the most evenly distributed resist ties along the length of the tube; immersing the most completely bound tube into the most carefully prepared dye bath; then unrolling and re-rolling in the opposite direction for the most comprehensively complex multi-color leheriya effects. The most characteristic leheriya designs: (1) The simple diagonal wave (the most immediately characteristic and the most easily recognizable leheriya pattern — produced by the most straightforwardly diagonal binding and the most simple single-dip dye process — creating the most immediately beautiful and the most comprehensively parallel wave patterns across the most completely unfurled fabric surface); (2) The mothara (the most immediately complex and the most specifically prestigious leheriya variety — producing the most immediately cross-hatched and the most specifically diamond-grid pattern by the most precisely calculated double-diagonal binding and double-dye process — the most immediately technically demanding and the most specifically prestigious of all the leheriya designs). Significance: leheriya fabric (the most specifically Rajasthani and the most immediately artisanally associated of all the Indian diagonal-resist dye textiles) is the most specifically and the most immediately appropriate traditional fabric for the most important Rajasthani seasonal festivals — the most importantly Teej festival (the most specifically monsoon-celebrating and the most immediately women-centered of all the Rajasthani festivals — when the most dramatically green and the most immediately vivid yellow leheriya sarees are the most specifically culturally required and the most immediately festival-appropriate garment for the most traditionally observant Rajasthani women).
