See All The Ethical Silk Company makes responsibly harvested mulberry silk goods. Mulberry silk is extracted after the moth has left the cocoon, leaving the moth unharmed. 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.
