Biophilia - Silk Robe
biophilia - SILK ROBE
Adorn and wrap your body in a soft sheath of nature’s living colours,
and feel their herbal properties close to your skin.
Hand dyed by Babs Behan, using local, seasonal dye flowers
and organic natural dyes, including:
Cosmos, chamomile, hollyhock, rose, onion skin, marigold, sandalwood, brazilwood, lac and cochineal along with mineral iron water
to create mesmerising patterns across the cloth.
The softest organic UK-grown peace silk (kind to moths!), in its natural, unbleached, boiled-off state.
Hand sewn in Devon using a natural cotton thread,
to complete the soil-to-soil material sourcing and composition of this robe.
So that once it’s useful life cycle is complete, it can be returned to the soil as biological nutrients, rather than pollutants.
Hand roll-hemmed.
