COLOR STORY: Olive is a lovely green, infused with subtle gray undertones that create a muted, vintage feel. It evokes the quiet charm of a warm English garden or the aromatic scent of evergreens beside a crackling fire. This timeless color gracefully transcends the seasons, bringing a touch of nature's enduring beauty to any setting.
A unique feature of this color is the subtle marbling of hues, which adds depth and character that can only be achieved through a handcrafted process with natural dyes. This alluring color is created using Tansy, gathered from our gardens throughout the summer.
Each batch varies slightly in tone, a beautiful expression of the plant's flowering stage at the time of harvest. This artisanal method results in a color that is rich with story. Olive is more than a shade; it is a connection to the grounding beauty of the natural world.
UNDERTONE: Earthy
EMOTION: Serene
TEXTURE: Classic
Lovingly handcrafted with care and intention, our plant-dyed silk ribbons are a poetic celebration of nature’s artistry. Each ribbon is steeped in the soul of the earth, hand-dyed using pigments drawn from plants, flowers, nuts, bark, and other natural materials—creating hues that whisper stories of their origins. The subtle variations in tone, born from the alchemy of hand-dyeing, make every ribbon as unique as the hands that craft them.
Soft, flowing, and impossibly luxurious, these silk bias ribbons are more than adornments—they are heirlooms, designed to be cherished for generations. Whether gracing a wedding bouquet, elevating a gift, or adding a meaningful touch to your next creation, they carry the essence of sustainability and timeless beauty. Rooted in natural materials and crafted with reverence for the earth, these ribbons are a testament to the harmony between understated luxury and organic authenticity.
Ribbon Specifications: Our silk ribbons are available in a variety of widths and lengths, tailored to the unique characteristics of each color and texture. Every ribbon is carefully wound onto our custom-made wood spools.
Ribbon Spools: Our spools are handcrafted in the USA from wood sourced from responsibly managed forests, ensuring both ecological integrity and positive social impact. Each spool is hand-dyed in-house using natural, water-based stains, reflecting our commitment to sustainability.
Sample Swatches: To help you find the perfect shade, sample swatches are available. Each sample measures 1.5 inches wide by 9 inches long and is presented around a simple card.
CLASSIC, SATIN, SHEER SILK RIBBONS: Our ribbons are thoughtfully crafted with longevity in mind, designed to be cherished as keepsakes or used and reused for years to come. If cleaning is necessary, gently hand-wash in cold water using a mild, pH-neutral natural laundry soap. Plant dyes are "living" colors that can be shifted by chemicals and drastic changes in pH. Avoid wringing or twisting; instead, press out excess water with a clean towel. Lay flat or hang to air dry, keeping them away from direct sunlight to preserve their rich, natural hues. For a smooth finish, use a medium-heat iron or steamer.
To refresh ribbons and remove creases or wrinkles, lightly spritz with water and, when nearly dry, steam or iron on medium heat. Pro Tip: A hair flat iron makes an excellent tool for quickly smoothing ribbons and ensuring a flawless, wrinkle-free presentation.
ETHEREAL, GOSSAMER, ORGANZA, TAFFETA SILK RIBBONS: These ribbons are delicate and require extra care. Dry cleaning is recommended to preserve their fine, airy weave, as hand washing may alter their delicate structure.
