The base materials are hand selected and dyed in indigo following a labour intensive process.
We aim to create unique products for indigo lovers.

The process highly laborious and ca only be executed by a master weaver.
The natural indigo combined with botanical black warp creates a beautiful deep blue color.

These uneven yarns result in a unique texture which distinguishes its purity and beauty.
Following traditional open weaving techniques, the yarns have been strengthened and smoothened with rice powder.
The open texture is ideal to be worn throughout the seasons, from spring to winter.

The unevenness of the yarns creates a unique texture and emphasizes the natural beauty of the scarf.

The subtle plaid design in this Tsuru scarf is manually created by mixing open weave with plain weave.
The hand spun cotton is wildly harvested and unrefined, which results in uneven yarns.
The yarns have been strengthened and smoothened with rice powder which is essential for creating the open weave.
