Handwoven peat silk

This piece was made using a blend of silk and peat fibres handwoven in the Himalayan area of Himachal Pradesh (India). Peat silk provides warmth to the organism thanks to the special blend with fibers that have been refined through a process involving mallow, horse chestnut extract, larch resin, and antimony.

Its hue is a soft, light brown featuring delicate undertones of grey or taupe that evoke the essence of earthly appearance found in mountainous regions.
