Golden Earth Shirt – Naturally Dyed with Botanical Dyes
 
The Golden Earth Shirt is a pure expression of natural dyeing, created by Ajrakh artisans using multiple dips in a plant-based dye bath. The result is a deep, earthy gold tone, rich in organic depth with subtle variations in texture. Unlike synthetic dyes, plant dyes bond with the fabric, creating a natural, living colour that evolves over time.
Crafted from certified organic Fairtrade cotton and natural plant dyes, this shirt is made with sustainability and heritage in mind, honouring the artisans and their centuries-old techniques. Each piece is finished with handmade coconut buttons, adding to its organic, understated elegance.
 
The Natural Dyeing Process
This shirt is dyed using a traditional immersion method, where the fabric is repeatedly dipped into a plant-based dye bath to build depth and richness. While the exact plant dyes used in this piece may include pomegranate rinds, iron-rich tannins, or myrobalan, the process results in an earthy golden shade that reflects nature’s influence.
Due to the organic nature of plant dyes, each shirt carries its own subtle variations and texture, ensuring that no two are exactly alike.
 
Thoughtfully Made, From Seed to Shirt
From selecting organic cotton grown without harmful pesticides to working with our master Ajrakh printers in Kutch, we oversee every step. The fabric is hand-printed, naturally dyed, and washed in flowing water before being crafted in a small workshop where attention to detail and comfort come first. Each shirt is finished with handmade coconut buttons, enhancing its organic aesthetic.

A Special Note on the Design
The Golden Earth Shirt is plain-dyed rather than block-printed, allowing the rich plant-dyed colour to stand on its own. Due to the hand-dyeing process, each shirt has an organic texture, with subtle variations that highlight its natural origins. It is straight cut at the bottom for a relaxed drape and features a casual collar with an offset top button, blending traditional craftsmanship with modern ease.
