Our play silks are designed and hand-dyed in Australia by Fibre Artist Laura using colourfast, child safe dyes. Her creations are inspired by nature, and variegated colour with depth and realism are achieved with her unique hand dye method, producing an one-of-a-kind piece to treasure. The natural crinkles in the silk are specifically preserved for added texture.

Material : 100% pongee silk

Size : 90 x 90 cm

*Due to the nature of hand dying, each piece is unique and may vary slightly in design.
