Naturally Dyed Patchwork Cotton Cushion - Zero Waste Collection

Sale Price: €70.00 Original Price: €95.00

Part of our Zero-Waste Collection, this one-of-a-kind cushion is created using carefully selected textile remnants from our studio, giving new life to beautiful natural fabrics.

The patchwork front combines linen, silk, and cotton fabrics that have been naturally dyed with onion skins, acorn cupules, and cutch by Christiana. A delicate bundle-dyed detail using onion skins and chamomile flowers adds subtle botanical texture and depth to the composition.

The back side is made from un-dyed linen sourced in Athens, Greece, and features a clean envelope closure for easy removal. Each cushion is entirely unique and handmade in our Athens studio.

Size: Approx. 40cm x 45 cm

Please note
• Pillow-case only — filling not included.

Batik

Batik is a wax-resist dyeing technique which originated in Indonesia.

The applied wax resists the dyes and therefore allows us to colour selectively by dyeing fabric in one colour and then removing the wax. In our practice, this is usually repeated a few times, creating layers with many different colours.

 

Natural Dyeing

Botanical dyeing is a slow process, that can be unpredictable and there are often pleasant colour surprises. It takes several hours to extract the natural pigment from plants, sometimes even days!
