A greater degree of gracefulness and accomplishment is manifest in the nice work done on the pattern of Kalamkari .

Developed in the temple region of Andhra Pradesh (Kalahasti), Kalamkari is a traditional painting style with strong line drawings. Paintings are made on cotton fabrics with a kalam i.e. pen, a sharp pointed pierced bamboo that regulates flow of colour on the fabric. Vegetable dyes are mainly used on cloth.
