PRODUCT CARE
Each product is made by hand, using ethically sourced, pre-consumer textiles that are discarded by the industry. These textiles are unsoiled and unused because they are 'unusable' by the industry due to slight wear-and-tear and weave and pattern defects. We source natural-fibre textiles as much as we can, although due to the sheer volume of discarded fabric that is amassed, we sometimes include material blends as linings and support fabrics to our products.
CUSHIONS & TABLE-LINEN
We recommend spot-cleaning for stains and dry-cleaning if absolutely required. A simple sunning on a terrace or air-drying at home will do to preserve the textile. Do not wash and iron only on low heat.
QUILTS
Quilts should be frequently aired in the sun and spot cleaned. Store in airy muslin or cotton bags or flat on a bed if possible. Quilts must be dry-cleaned every six to eight months.

Custom upholstery for a traditional South Indian unjal or swing-seating for Design ni Dukaan, a venture by Sona Reddy Studio.
For this project to create custom upholstery from scrap fabrics, we decided to draw heavily on the tile-work on this traditional hand-made Chettinad swing seat. The floral pattern in shades of pink with green foliage and vines provided the starting point in selecting a colour palette for the cushions.
THE PROCESS
For the top cushions, we laid out the bands of scrap silk and cotton in a unique composition of colours onto baby pink raw silk and overlaid with machine embroidery lines. For the base cushion, we used emerald green raw silk and foam for a sturdy base.
