Dyeing is one of the loveliest ways to give a piece new life. Our artisans assess your piece, agree the shade with you, and dye it by hand with techniques perfected over many years.

In expert hands, yes. Because every fabric behaves a little differently, the way a piece takes colour can vary - particularly with mixed or synthetic materials. That's precisely why we assess each piece carefully before we begin, test on sample fabric where needed, and only proceed once we're confident of a beautiful result. We'll always talk you through what to expect for your piece, so there are no surprises.

Not every fabric - and that's a good thing, because it means we only ever recommend dyeing when we know it will work well. Natural fibres tend to take colour most beautifully. During your consultation we'll assess your piece and let you know honestly whether dyeing is the right path. Even if traditional dyeing isn’t possible, there is always the options of screen printing and hand painting.

Dyeing generally deepens or changes a colour rather than lightening it. We'll always guide you to a result we're confident we can achieve, and talk you through the options for your piece.

Hand-dyeing has a character all its own, and part of its beauty is that each result is unique. We guide you to a shade we're confident of, test where helpful, and keep you informed throughout, so the result is one you'll love.

We do, and it's something rather special. Natural dyes take a little longer and each result is wonderfully unique - no two are ever quite the same - which is part of their charm. They're also far gentler on the world around us. There's even room for something deeply personal: your wedding bouquet, for instance, could be used to dye your dress, so the day is woven into the piece forever.

A great deal of care and expertise. We assess the fabric, test where appropriate, and rely on the experience of artisans who have spent their careers doing exactly this. Your piece is in the safest hands at every stage. Occasionally a fabric carries a hidden stain or traces of dry-cleaning chemicals that can affect the result; we'll always talk you through anything we spot.

Dyeing is an art, and our artisans take the greatest care at every stage. Just occasionally, a fabric holds something none of us can see - an old stain, a past spillage, or chemicals left behind from dry cleaning - and these can affect how a piece takes colour, in ways that are beyond anyone's control. Because of this, we ask every client to sign a short agreement beforehand, simply confirming they understand. And should anything unexpected appear, we'd never leave you with it: we'll always work with you to find a solution and shape a final design you truly love.

Wonderfully little, in fact - the less interference, the better. We'd simply ask that you don't dry clean or spot clean it beforehand, as the chemicals involved can interfere with how the fabric takes colour. Bring it to us just as it is, and we'll take the very best care of it from there. 

For brides, please don’t worry about any mud or stains on the hem from your wedding day - that’s just evidence of a beautiful day! We can remove the hem and then use that for sample testing. 

No, please don't. It's tempting to want a piece looking its best beforehand, but the chemicals used in dry cleaning can affect the dyeing process. Your piece is in the safest hands with us, exactly as it comes.
