This one-of-a-kind textile is created using eco-printing, a natural dye technique where real leaves imprint their pigments and shapes directly onto fabric.
The blanket is made from 100% organic cotton woven in Tripoli, Greece. The fabric was carefully arranged and eco-printed by Christiana using a variety of leaves including chestnut, plane tree, oak, ferns and walnut.
All the botanical materials used in this piece were collected by Christiana and friends during a hike in Pelion, bringing a personal connection to the landscape into the textile.
This versatile piece can be used as a light blanket, sofa throw, meditation textile, baby blanket, picnic cloth, or decorative wall hanging.
Size: approximately 115 × 115 cm

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!
