🪡 About the Ribbon

Made from recycled mulberry sari silk — the finest silk in the world, upcycled from traditional Indian sari fabric. Natural warm ivory-cream color. The frayed edges are a deliberate feature creating soft organic texture and blending potential.

🎨 Dyeing Techniques

🌿 1. Natural / Botanical Dyeing

🌈 Natural Dye Colors on Silk

🌱 2. Eco-Printing

Bundle leaves with damp silk, roll around a dowel, steam 60–90 minutes. Best plants: eucalyptus, rose, Japanese maple, fern, onion skins.

💜 3. Acid Dyeing

Dissolve acid dye in hot water, add silk and white vinegar, simmer at 82°C for 30–45 minutes. Full spectrum, excellent lightfastness.

🌀 4. Shibori & Resist Dyeing

Fold, bind, or clamp the ribbon before dyeing for extraordinary resist patterns.

🌈 5. Ombre & Gradient Dyeing

Dip-dye in progressively deeper baths for beautiful gradients.
