$27.51Excl. VAT
Description
A refined, naturally dyed hemp fabric in four earthy, plant-derived shades. At 183 GSM, this is a versatile light-midweight cloth—breathable, durable, and beautifully tactile. The color carries subtle depth and tonal variation that is inherent to botanical dyeing, giving the textile a quiet artisan presence rather than industrial uniformity. This is a slow-made, craft-forward fabric for makers who value longevity, texture, and honest natural color.
2) How It’s Made
This cloth is woven from long-staple hemp fibers into a balanced plain weave, then dyed using natural pigments from plant and earth sources in small, controlled batches. The process prioritizes low-impact color application and fiber integrity over perfect uniformity, allowing each shade to retain gentle, organic variation. The finish is light and garment-appropriate, preserving hemp’s inherent strength and breathability.
