Handloom Selvedge Denim – 9.0 Oz – Custom Tie Dye Pattern 03 – Onion Skins

The dry skin of onion, Allium cepa, which is thrown away by everyone, all the time, is a rich source of natural dye, which has been used for dyeing textiles since times immemorial. It results in quite interesting and lovely hues and colors.

We collect onion skins from local eateries (dhaba) who, otherwise, throw away this wonderful and precious source of mesmerizing colors in to the dust-bins, and recycle this zero-value waste to create high-value eco-friendly textiles and fashion.

The pigment, which is very easy to extract, gives an unbelievable range of shades.

The dyeing is completely chemical-free, and organic in nature to the core.
