Corsican plant-based dyes

Each plant has its own unique palette of tones. Over time, the colour will develop a patina, revealing the authentic charm of plant-based dyeing. The beauty of natural dyes lies in the depth and slight variations in shade that are obtained, making each item unique.

Plant-based dyes

EXPERTISE 
Dyeing with plants requires know-how and rigorous practice. The artisan dyer at DAVIA Tintura Corsa studied with experts and experimented for years before choosing her selection of Corsican dye-plants.

R&D 
This selection of Corsican plants and the dyeing protocol used were chosen for their dyeing colour and durability (resistance to UV, washing and friction).

NATURALITY
This plant-based dyeing process uses no chemicals, therefore gentler for the skin.

MILLESIMES 
DAVIA Tintura Corsa works with vintages (year of harvest of the plants & terroir), like wine.
