Chhipigars were a community in India, primarily known for their traditional occupation of dyeing and printing textiles, particularly in the regions of Gujarat and Rajasthan. They played a significant role in the textile industry, often using natural dyes to create vibrant patterns and designs. The Chhipigar community is also associated with the larger tradition of block printing and has contributed to the rich heritage of Indian crafts. Over time, many Chhipigars have adapted to modern textile techniques while still preserving their cultural identity.
