Ecologically Grown Raw Material
& Naturally Dyed
In this collection we focus on using plant-based natural fibers from ecologically grown raw materials. The fibers are obtained from nature and the production process uses much less water, energy and chemicals. Most plant-based fibers like linen and organic cotton are also very durable and can be washed and worn countless times.
​
We aim to work closely with our local communities to help preserve their traditional knowledge in handwoven skills or natural dyeing that has been passed down for generations.
Linen Collection
Natural, Breathable, Luxurious
Linen is a strong, lightweight, and naturally hypoallergenic fabric that is known for its high sustainability values. Linen is made from flax plants, one of the renewable resources that is fast growing and does not require the use of fertilizers or pesticides. Flax plants also require much less water to grow, natural rainfall is usually enough. The production leaves almost no waste behind since the entire plant can be woven into fibers. Best of all, linen is 100% biodegradable. Pure, natural linen can decompose by itself in just two weeks, you can even cut them into smaller pieces to speed up the process.
Organic Cotton
What is considered organic?
Organic materials have to be grown from non-GMO natural seeds without the use of synthetic fertilizers, pesticides or any harmful agricultural chemicals. The soil in which the seeds are planted must be rotated regularly to maintain the soil quality and nutrients which can produce healthy crops and use less water.
During the harvest, organic cottons are completely handpicked to preserve the purity and quality of the fibers
resulting in softer and more durable fabrics.
​
Some of our organic cotton pieces are mixed with Kapok which is also a naturally biodegradable fiber.
Kapok fibers give bounciness and silkier texture to the fabric.
