This piece was born slowly, by hand.
The silk chiffon is wrapped carefully around a pipe with cotton string…
binding parts of the fabric while leaving others open to receive the dye.
Then it's lowered into a bath of tree bark.
What emerges is never exact,
lines form where the silk was held,
soft gradients where the dye was free to move.
The color that comes through is warm and earthen—amber, rust, and the quiet brown of bark after rain.
There's a quiet rhythm in it…
something almost like roots, or soil settling.
Nothing is printed.
Nothing is forced.

Style tip
Wear it either way
front or back, depending on how open or held you want to feel.
Let it fall loose over the body…
or tuck it softly into silk or linen.
It moves easily between something undone and something refined.
A note on natural dyeing
Each piece comes from the dye bath differently.
The lines, the depth of tone, the softness of the transitions
all shaped by the way the silk was wrapped and how the dye moved through it.
No two will ever be the same.
That's not a flaw.
It's the point.
