A set of six Kalamkari Tree of Life napkins in soft cotton, printed with flowering vines and paisley borders in madder red, indigo and ochre. Generously sized and made to be used every day — they only get softer with each wash.
Each piece is printed by hand using carved wooden blocks — a traditional Kalamkari technique from India, where craftspeople press every motif onto the cloth one impression at a time, building up the design layer by layer, colour by colour. The cotton is coloured only with natural, plant-based vegetable dyes, then washed and sun-dried between stages. It is slow, skilled work, and no two pieces are ever quite the same.
Because the cloth is hand-printed with natural dyes, you'll see slight variations in tone, alignment and texture. These aren't flaws — they're the marks of the maker's hand and the character of the dyes, and they make each piece one of a kind.
Set of 6, each 43 x 43cm. Pair with the matching tablecloth for a complete table.
Woven from 100% cotton and coloured only with natural, plant-based vegetable dyes — no chemical dyes.
Made entirely from natural fibres and biodegradable vegetable dyes, so at the end of its long life it can return to the earth.
Printed entirely by hand with wooden blocks and dried in the sun, with no energy-intensive machinery or synthetic dye processing.
Every maker is paid above the government minimum wage, with access to savings schemes, insurance, and paid leave as standard.
Kalamkari is a centuries-old Indian textile art. Every purchase helps keep traditional block printing and natural dyeing skills alive and valued for the next generation of artisans.

Natural dyes are gentler than synthetic ones, so a little care keeps the colours rich for years.
• Hand wash or machine wash on a gentle cycle at 30°C, separately for the first few washes as some colour may release.
• Use a mild, pH-neutral detergent with no bleach or optical brighteners. Do not soak.
• Dry flat or line dry in the shade — strong direct sunlight will fade natural dyes over time. Do not tumble dry.
• Iron on the reverse while slightly damp, on a medium setting.
• Blot spills promptly with cold water rather than rubbing.

Kantha is an ancient embroidery tradition originating in rural Bengal (present-day Bangladesh and West Bengal, India). A running stitch, deceptively simple, worked in parallel lines across layered cloth to bind and quilt. It is a way of giving new purpose to worn saris, stitching them into something whole again.
The stitch itself creates a gentle ripple across the surface, both structural and expressive. Each throw carries this lineage — slow, meditative work that transforms discarded fabric into something that will last for decades.
