Naturally dyed with gallnut – due to the nature of dye method color may vary
Gallnuts (quercus infectoria) are formed when oak trees excrete a tannin-rich substance. They are used as both a dye and a natural mordant. Gallnuts produce shades of beige. Combined with iron, the colour changes to grey and black. The dye improves lightfastness. The nuts are also used medicinally and have been used to make ink.
