Nomadic people all over the world and American cowboys - all those who can’t bathe often - favoured indigo dye because it is a natural antiseptic! At Malkha, we think that indigo dyed in the traditional way has eye-catching and mysterious carmine undertones. Our light indigo is dipped 3 times in the fermented vats, our dark indigo is dipped 8 times.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-accordian-target=\"\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eANAR YELLOW\u003cbr\u003eMalkha's anar is the product of anar and harda. The outer peel of the pomegranate fruit is applied to yarn that is already treated with myrobalan, producing a delightful, sunny yellow colour.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-accordian-target=\"\" id=\"about-our-dyes\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eALIZARIN RED\u003cbr\u003eThe deep red produced by Malkha's alizarin dye comes from a byproduct of coal tar. The only non-vegetable dye used by our master dyer Salim, in many ways alizarin behaves exactly like vegetable dyes, rewarding care and attention with a colour from which it is impossible to look away.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003ca href=\"#malkha-and-you\" data-accordian-action=\"\"\u003eAbout Fabric Quality and Care\u003cspan\u003e+\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp id=\"malkha-and-you\" data-accordian-target=\"\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat it feels like\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWhen you first touch our fabric, it will feel rough but rub it against your skin, or better yet, wear it, and it will surprise you with its graceful fall and softness. The colors that the Natural Dyes impart to the Malkha fabric are deep and vibrant - imbued with the richness of the earth. They vary from season to season, as fruits and vegetables do, and so each piece is subtly unique, changing its tone with the position of the sun and the quality of the water in the nearby river.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow it ages\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMalkha fabric ages much like we do, the wear and tear matches the way you use and treat it. If you want it to soften and fade and become well worn and tell your story, like wrinkles do, treat it as you will and watch the colors fade beautifully with time. If you want it to always be vibrant, like the day it was made, we suggest you skip dry cleaning, laundry detergent and if you are able, even a washing machine. Use a non-detergent soap if you must or just give it a quick hearty rinse in cold water.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"MALKHA","offers":[{"title":"by the metre","offer_id":52809770860819,"sku":"XE 6461 ORG","price":800.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true},{"title":"2.5 metre cut pieces","offer_id":52809770893587,"sku":"XE 6461 ORG","price":2000.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2555\/3796\/files\/XE6461_3.jpg?v=1765623072","url":"https:\/\/malkha.in\/products\/organic-geometric-fabric-indigo-green-kora-sappan-copy","provider":"Malkha Marketing Trust","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
