Organic silk ribbon 'Slate'
Organic silk ribbon 'Slate'
Feather & Stone's rich dark grey silk ribbon with blue undertones, available in both Habotai and Tabby Silk.
TABBY OR HABOTAI
Both from the finest Mulberry silk, Tabby silk is a beautifully delicate, soft and sheer silk - lighter in weight than the Habotai silk and the edges fray more easily. This finer silk is gorgeous for wrapping around stationery and gift boxes but also the perfect companion to the Habotai silk, which is a little heavier & thicker, for bouquets and decor.
MEASUREMENTS
Tabby 25mm x 5m
Habotai 55mm x 5m
PLANT DYED
All Feather & Stone silk ribbons are handmade in NZ, each ribbon is hand dyed using natural and local plant materials. Bias cut is ribbon or "tape" that has been produced by cutting directly from bolts of fabric diagonally along the bias. The result is a beautiful and flexible ribbon that drapes and stretches nicely making it the perfect wedding accessory for bouquets, stationery, cutlery, chairs etc. Bias silk ribbon has a seam every 1m or so, as this is how it is constructed. The edges are unfinished, but will not unravel. You can however create a soft frayed look by running your fingers very slightly on the edges.
COLOURS
All of the ribbons are photographed in natural light however the colour may not be exactly what you see on your screen. There is also subtle colour changes with each ribbon depending on the light - which makes each one unique and stunning!
