ESSENCE | This mindfully curated bundle, designed to accompany your various tea rituals, includes five tea coasters and a chajin, a tea wiping cloth. Each coaster features two distinct sides: one showcases a traditional indigo checkered weave, while the other reveals a contemporary pattern of fine linear textures.
Both fabrics are woven from yarns hand-dyed with indigo leaves, celebrating a dialogue between heritage and modernity. Inside, a layer of pure wool gently absorbs the droplets of water that dance throughout the ritual.
The chajin echoes this harmony. One side bears the same indigo checkered weave, while the other is made from handwoven, undyed cotton in a soft, nourishing beige tone.
These precious textile companions carry a luminous Qi, infused with the spirit of the remote mountains of China.
NAME | 双然 Shuāng Rán, translating as “Two Natures”, refers to the reversible quality of these pieces.
STORY | Those pieces are lovingly handcrafted by women artisans from the Dong indigenous community, part of the DEYI textile cooperative. From the cultivation of cotton to natural dyeing with medicinal plants, through weaving and final sewing, every step is carried out with the utmost care — preserving centuries-old traditions and honoring Mother Earth. These craftswomen live and work in deep harmony with Nature, in small remote villages of Rongjiang County, Guizhou Province, Southwest China.
Among the Dong people, indigo is considered as a sacred medicinal plant. When preparing the indigo dye vat, the women prepare an altar to ask for blessings from the deities of Nature and the female ancestors, inviting a smooth and harmonious fermentation process. The indigo vat is a living ecosystem — even considered as a member of the family by the women themselves. Those textile pieces will support your rituals with grace, carrying the spirit of indigo medicine and the deep love of the artisans for their craft — a wisdom passed down through generations of women.
COMPOSITION | 100% indigenous organic cotton. Hand-spun yarns, hand-dyed with indigo leaves, and handwoven on traditional looms.
CARING | Each fabric is truly unique, shaped over several days of patient, handmade work. Small irregularities in the weave or the dye are not defects — they’re part of the soul of the piece, traces of the human hands behind it. To care for these pieces with the attention they deserve, we invite you to read our caring guide.
SIZE | Five reversible coasters : 10 x 10 cm each
Tea wiping cloth : 10 x 32 cm
SHIPPING | We offer worldwide shipping. Prices listed include shipping fees.
