What is 'Dabber' ?

This question was previously asked in
CUET PG 2026 Agri-Business Management Question Paper (25-Mar-2026) (Shift 2)
The correct answer is
Inking pad made of cloth of soft leather

The term "Dabber" refers to an "Inking pad made of cloth or soft leather". Let's explore why this is the correct answer and eliminate the incorrect options:

  1. Understanding the Term:

    "Dabber" is used in the context of printmaking, particularly in processes involving inking. A dabber is typically a pad often made of cloth or soft leather that is used to apply ink evenly on a surface.

  2. Eliminating Other Options:
    • Wooden tool for wood cut

      This option is incorrect because a dabber is not a tool for cutting but rather for applying ink.

    • Engraving tool for etching

      This option is incorrect as an engraving tool is used to carve or etch designs into a surface, not for inking.

    • Machine tool for etching prints

      This option is incorrect because a machine tool refers to mechanical devices used for etching or printing, whereas a dabber is specifically for manual inking.

  3. Conclusion:

    The option "Inking pad made of cloth or soft leather" correctly defines a dabber as it is used in the printmaking process to apply ink smoothly to the surface that is being printed. This understanding is essential in fine arts, especially within the study of printmaking techniques.
