Thirty pieces a style.

01

Dye

Yarn goes into a fermented indigo vat nine times, oxidising green to blue between dips.

02

Weave

One weaver, one pit loom, roughly four metres a day. The slubs are the signature.

03

Number

When the thirtieth piece is cut, the pattern is retired and every label is signed.

“The indigo has softened beautifully after a year. It looks better now than the day it arrived.”

“You can feel the hand in it — tiny slubs, a little irregular. Mine is number 4 of 30.”
Kabir S. · Bengaluru

“The madder colour is so alive in sunlight. Washed cold, dried in shade, no fading.”

How to keep it

Cold wash

Hand or gentle cycle, mild soap. Wash indigo alone the first three times.

Dry in shade

Direct sun fades natural dyes. Hang inside out under a verandah.

Iron inside out

Warm, while slightly damp. The weave relaxes, the colour stays.
