Handwoven Thai Textiles & Ikat

Hand-wash cool with a mild, pH-neutral soap, never bleach, and dry in the shade. Wash indigo pieces separately for the first few washes — natural kram can crock a little when brand new. Over years it softens and mellows rather than fading flat, and that quiet patina is part of the cloth's character.

Kram is the Thai indigo plant. The blues here come from fermented kram vats, dyed in repeated hand-immersions rather than synthetic dye — a deeper tone simply means more dips in the vat. Every piece is dyed the old way, by makers who read the vat by its smell and the colour of its foam.

Each piece is woven or dyed once you reserve it, by a single artisan working at the pace the loom and the vat allow — the lead time is written on every piece's page. That wait is the difference between genuine handwoven cloth and something run off a machine.
