No pollution of nature
No chemicals pollute the rivers at our weavers.
That’s because the brown yarn of this tablecloth is not dyed.
That nature does not have to suffer in the making of this beautiful fabric is entirely in keeping with our times.
Yet the dyeing and weaving techniques used by the weaver are centuries old.
Before weaving, the yarn was immersed in rice water.
This way, the threads could be woven without breaking.
This makes the fabric feel slightly harder at first, but it only gets softer after each wash.

Know that this is the result of days of weaving with care for detail and beauty.
From cotton to woven fabric
