This kind method results in a beautiful matte lustre. Everything is designed in Ireland and made in India by fair trade tailor Mehera Shaw. Block printed products are hand dyed with low impact, AZO free dyes. A water filtration system removes residue so it can be recycled and reused for fabric washing, and a rainwater catchment system reduces water use. Production is limited to short and repeat runs. Careful pattern placement minimises waste. And older stock is repurposed into smaller items. 10% of profits are donated to Jeevan Jyothi AIDS Centre in India and Focus Ireland, a charity that works to prevent people becoming, remaining or returning to homelessness.
