Small-batch cloth, wax-resist prints and fired clay from a workshop above the shop in Colombo. Nothing here was made by a machine alone.
Every rail below is stocked from the same handful of workshops, so a colourway you loved last month may not come back. That is how hand-dyed cloth behaves.
13 pieces
Drapes, batik and handloom cut for the city

Lungi, wraps and shirt-weight batik
6 pieces
Small people, grown-up craft
10 pieces
Bead, clay and woven-thread work
9 pieces
Bags, footwear and the finishing layer
8 pieces
Made by hand in the workshop, not a factory
10 pieces
Handloom and clay for the rooms you live in
We buy the cloth before it is cut, and we pay for the whole batch — not one piece of it. That is the only way a loom keeps running.
The eight pieces we hand to a customer who says “just show me what you love”.
Two to four working days anywhere in Sri Lanka, free above Rs 15,000.
Unworn, with the cotton wrap. Made-to-measure pieces are final.
Workshops are paid when the batch starts, not when it sells. No consignment.
Indigo, marigold, iron and tea. Where we use a fixed dye we say so on the page.
A wood-fired jar keeps water cold for a day. A coiled hyacinth tray flattens itself after a month on the shelf. A block-printed panel fades evenly rather than falling apart. We only stock what behaves that way.

“Third order this year”
Repeat customer here. The handloom stuff lasts, which is the whole argument.
“Colour is deeper in person”
Photographs do not do the dye justice. Wore it twice already and the fit held up after a hand wash.
“Packaging was lovely”
Arrived folded in cloth with a care note, no plastic at all. Kept the wrap for the return.
The batch list
One note a month: what came off the loom, what is being fired, and first refusal on small batches before they go on the shelves.
