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.

Re-imagining Kanjivaram Sarees with Sarangi Store
We are happy to introduce a new capsule collection of home textiles in collaboration with Sarangi Store. The collection features a limited-edition range of cushion covers that seeks to preserve the hand-skill of kanjivaram sarees.
Kanjivaram sarees are traditional textiles from Tamil Nadu. They are laborious to weave, technically complex and require many hours of hand-skill. Sarangi Store's exquisite range of traditional, hand-woven sarees presented an excellent opportunity for us to re-imagine the jewel-like colours of the pattus or silks, as well as the traditional motifs that depict aspects of everyday life.
The design was carefully thought through, employing patchwork as the technique to reinvent them. Patchwork is a non-intrusive method to preserving textiles, and it was the perfect technique to use to keep the weave of the kanjivaram fabrics intact. The design and production was done by our studio.
