The dyes used are:-
Haritaki - natural green in colour, it is only grown in parts of the Himalayas and is known as the King of the Herbs. It is a highly potent herb for treating many serious diseases;
Turmeric - a yellow dye, also called 'Indian saffron', it comes from the ginger family and is great for skin complaints;
Indigo - a blue dye from the leaves of the Indigo tincoria, and cures gout amongst other things!
Madder - a red dye known as the 'king of dyes' as it contains alizarin, it is also used as a treatment for pain;
Pomegranate - an ocher-yellow dye which improves colourfastness and as a medicinal herb is great for the heart!
Onion - is used to produce dye colours in shades of orange, yellow, rust and brown, and it's especially good for treating serious skin diseases like Leprosy.
Hand Embroidered Finishes
The hand embroidered finish used to create the inscriptions on our fabric bands are Japanese Glass Beads;

NO PLANET B (m)
Regular price $25.00 AUDNO PLANET B
"Beauty protests with a noisy silence"
Bands of Courage
We love this protest slogan as it sums up the way we are treating our planet - as if we had another one to go to. Earth is like a take-away meal, take what we want, and be done with the rest.
'No Planet B' encompasses every aspect of humanity's appalling behaviour towards our only home - plastic pollution, burning fossil fuels, deforestation, littering, and so on. 'No Planet B' is a firm and polite way of reminding people we are trashing our home and that it's the only one we have. People who wear No Planet B are simply saying we need to be more respectful of where we live.

The organic fabric band measures 33cm / 13 inches in length. To fit to size, the length can be trimmed with scissors.
Worn on the wrist or ankles, it is double tied at the back to hold the band in place. The organic nature of the material means it stays put. The band can be sown onto clothes or onto soft furnishings or used as a decoration.

PEACE (m)
Regular price $25.00 AUDPEACE
"But man is a part of nature, and his war against nature is inevitably a war against himself" . . . Peace is needed
Rachel Carson
As a slogan for protest, Peace really got going in the 1960s in the context of a likely nuclear war between the United States and Russia. It was just at that time Rachel Carson was opening John F Kennedy's eyes to DDT and the chemical industry's treatment of the environment.
JFK set out on nature's side and today nature is as much under siege as peoples' human rights. Peace and Love might have be a mantra from the 1960's, but it's a slogan that is coming back into fashion - This is a band for someone who wants to stylishly remind the world that we are fighting wars with nature and amongst ourselves.
