One of the prettiest touches of all ...
The Winter's Tale
Organic cotton muslin shawl, stamped with a hand-drawn design and Shakespeare quote, and naturally dyed with hawthorn from the banks of Shakespeare's Avon and hedgerows of Warwickshire. Our organic cotton is ethically grown and woven, and sewn by a women's co-operative in Kerala, India.
Through the sharp hawthorn blows the cold winds.
King Lear
The leaves, flowers and berries of hawthorn yield beautiful shades of apricot, coral and dusky pink; as much as is possible, we have grouped the shawls by shade palette, but within this range there may be many variations.
Led by nature
Our naturally dyed items are produced in small batches, and the journey from plant to finished fabric is both attentive and unhurried. As the seasons turn we will be releasing limited drops of these unique products.
Using natural dyes made from leaves, bark, berries and flowers, each product in our Dyer's Hand collection offers beautiful soft tones and shades, with unique variations in colour, character and depth, creating a one-of-a-kind piece. It is important to note that naturally dyed results will never be uniform, and occasionally the colour from the dye may settle in different areas of the fabric. We like to think that the colour of the finished cloth reflects the ever-changing seasons and nuances of nature.
Size: 120 x 120 cm
Wash at 30ºC using a natural eco detergent without optical brighteners or bleaching agents. Our naturally dyed products have been test washed up to 10 washes with no visible fading, but the colours may be subject to fading over longer periods of time. Line dry.
