Okanagan Long Robe

Derived from locally sourced plants and minerals, natural dyes draw from thousands of years of Ayurvedic knowledge.

Through the use of these ancient processes and natural dyes, the fabric gains a unique characteristic. During summer, the dye expands the pores of the fabric, making it easy for air to pass through. During winter, the pores close tighter, providing warmth.

Natural dyes produce subtle, layered colours with exquisite tonal variation. This artisanal work inherently results in variations and makes each piece a unique expression of natural elements.

Natural dyes include indigo, henna, turmeric, pomegranate, jaggery, iron, ash, rhubarb root, mud and red clay and are biodegradable, generate zero waste, help to preserve water quality, and contribute to the nutrient cycle of soil.
