Honoring Our Earth
Beyond Sustainability
For a better future we must go beyond sustaining our planet to healing the planet and its people. Products cannot be sustainable but practices and relationships can. We create regenerative relationships everyone we work with, from the native plants and weavers in India to tailors and Adivasi artisans. We honor each member of this through commitments and wealth distribution.

Our Fabrics
Every region in the world has incredible biodiversity so we focus on championing native fibers in South Asia like Khadi (indigenous cotton) and Eri (peace) silk originating from Assam, India. The circle of life is an Adivasi concept, we believe fabrics are the same and use deadstock and recycled cotton fabrics. Each piece is handwoven with care and colored with natural dyes like Indigo leaf for vibrant blues, madder root for deep reds, and turmeric, myrobalan and marigold for bright, sunshine yellows.

Adivasi Communities & Craft
With the rise of fast fashion, knockoffs and appropriation, craft communities started leaving their work. Our mission is to amplify Adivasi knowledge through craft and culture with each collection. Each community has unique traditions of embroidery, block printing, mirror work, patterns, and textiles. Our first collection includes intricate Lambani embroidery and mirror work by nomadic Lambani tribal artisans in collaboration with Sandur Kushala Kala Kendra, an NGO in Sandur, Karnataka focused on ampliying Lambani craft.

No Scrap Left Behind
Every fabric scrap is valuable and can be turned into something beautiful. We upcycle all of our fabric scraps into accessories like scrunchies, scarves and masks. If a piece is too small we use it to stuff cushions and mattresses.
