  Quality Material – Hand-woven from 100% rain-fed brown cotton, Kandu is lightweight yet offers warmth in winter and breathability in summer. Its natural properties, eco-friendly production process, and beautifully timeless design make it an ideal fabric for everyday use. Kandu’s earthy brown hue deepens with each wash, creating a unique, personalized shade that stabilizes after 10 washes.

  
  Eco-conscious dyes – We enhance Kandu’s beauty with natural dyes—indigo, pomegranate peel, iron rust, and more—all sustainably sourced.
  
  Water-Efficient Production – Unlike conventional cotton, Kandu requires minimal water, making it an environmentally friendly choice.

• To ensure that your beautiful piece looking fresh and vibrant for many seasons to come we recommend following these simple care instructions:
  
  Gentle Cold Wash - immerse your Anjelms piece in cold water and gently hand wash it. If a washing machine is used, wash with similar colours and cold gentle cycle are recommended. A slight shrinkage (2.5% - 3.5%) and a soft, supple fabric after a few washes are to be expected. 
  
  Air Dry in the Shade - after washing, avoid wringing it out to preserve the fabric quality and lay flat or hang it to air dry in a shaded area to prevent fading and protect the fabric from the harsh effects of direct sunlight. 
  
  Avoid Harsh Detergents - to preserve the integrity of the colors and material, opt for mild, gentle pH-neutral detergents that are suitable for delicate fabrics. Avoid bleach and ironing on a low setting only if necessary.
