Ranaco Atelier
Our organic silk is hand dyed using a traditional ‘screen’ technique to transfer the print onto the fabric. It then has to sun-dry in open air, again relying on natural resources the earth has to offer. The result of this can be seen in the rawness of the finished product, it carries the authentic edge of an organic product- one that is hand made from scratch. Similarly to a hand kneaded loaf or the beauty of an abstract piece of art and the sound of a record player- we took the unconventional approach of time-travelling back to an era of analogue that we hope to share with you through everyday life as you slip into one of our pieces.
The process involves individually cutting each piece of fabric with the art of craft in mind, and the pace of slow living. With this ethical mindset, we operate on fair trade practices wherein we don’t negotiate and produce based on our sewers asking price.
