A skirt for every season in beautiful, unparalleled natural colors.

Yellow color: Neem tree leaf

The leaves of the tree Azadrirachta indica (popularly Neem ) are used in India for medicinal applications. Especially for skin conditions (psoriasis) and to prevent tooth decay. But Neem is also very popular as a fungus lice and insect repellent. It is used against head lice in humans as well as in plants to prevent fungus growth. Neem is not often used as a textile dye and that is what makes this skirt special. The yellow colour is soft yet intense. Very different from hard yellow synthetic colors.

Red color: Sandalwood

The Sandal Tree is mainly found in South India. Perfume and essential oil are made from the wood. Sandal is also used as a pigment and spread on the skin as a paste in many religious rituals in Hinduism, Buddhism, Sufism and Jainism. It is said to have a calming and purifying effect. The red is soft and sometimes tends to orange. A beautiful color that cannot be compared to any other red hue.

Sizes

The skirt is tied with a ribbon around the waist. It has a lot of fabric because of the the full circle shape. The sizing therefore is somewhat roughly. Measurements are in centimeters.
