botanically dyed silk scarf - various colors

Rebecca is the textile artist, natural dyer, and devoted student of color and texture behind Marram. Marram is a natural dye studio specializing in unique accessories and homewares, based by the Atlantic Ocean in Seignosse SW France. For Rebecca, the process is as meaningful as the outcome: slow, meditative, and wonderfully unpredictable. At the heart of Marram is a deep curiosity about what happens when fabric meets nature. Roots, flora, bark, and pigment pulled straight from the earth. No two dye baths or flower prints ever yield the same result. Which means no two Marram pieces are ever the same. Every item arrives with its own birthmarks, its own unique character. Just like its wearer.

Each of these is a one-of-a-kind scarf that has been dyed using the method of bundle dyeing. Each piece is made of 100% soft mid weight Habotai silk. Bundle dyeing is the process of placing dyestuffs directly on your chosen fabric then extracting their natural colors through heat and steam, resulting in their imprints being transferred onto the silk. The silk has been hand dyed using a combination of plants, flowers, food waste and natural dye extracts to create a unique print on the fabric. The hems are hand-rolled, and each piece measures 53 x 53 cm. Perfect for using as a neck scarf, headband or bandana, wrap around your hair updo, or simply as a belt around your favorite dress. Your little ones may also enjoy it as a field of wild flowers in their open play.
