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!
A one-of-a-kind silk scarf, hand-painted in Christiana’s Athens studio using natural inks made from logwood bark, sticklac, madder roots and cutch extract. These botanical dyes create an expressive palette of soft blush, earthy rose, muted violet and warm brown tones.
Made from 100% undyed silk sourced from Soufli, Greece, the scarf has a beautifully lightweight feel and a subtle natural sheen. Its generous size allows it to be worn around the neck, draped over the shoulders or styled as a light wrap.
