Hand-dyed silk charmeuse sleep mask

What is charmeuse silk?

Charmeuse silk is considered to be more enveloping than habotai silk. Soft and opaque, it has a glossy side. It keeps cool in the summer and warm in colder weather. Its virtues for the skin make it a recommended fabric for the pillowcase.

We quickly fall in love with this type of silk!

Color stability

Natural dyes are living and some colors may soften or lighten over time. However, I take care to prepare the fabrics so that the color is as long-lasting as possible and, unless otherwise specified, the pigments chosen are those with good stability over time. With the right care, your piece will have a long life! It is recommended not to let your scarf dry in the sun, to wash it only when necessary and to use a neutral pH soap.

A unique and perfectly imperfect piece

The vegetable dyeing process allows you to create unique pieces. Because of its nature, it is possible to find subtle marks or stains on its piece from flowers, leaves, roots and more. These marks contribute to the uniqueness of the piece and correspond to the idea of "perfectly imperfect".

Eco-responsibility

The dye baths are made from elements picked locally with my mini, flowers saved from compost after an event or pigments purchased from retailers who grow their own plants or source them ethically. I try to develop a work process that is as responsible and sustainable as possible, as much in terms of choosing suppliers as in the making and packaging.

My products are made entirely of natural fibers - with the exception of what is upcycled - and can return to the earth at the end of their useful life. Let's try to create and consume without creating more waste!
