Livity Original Hand-Dyed Tote: Oceanic Swirl (OOAK Textile Art)

$32.00

Capture the fluid, rhythmic energy of the sea with Oceanic Swirl, an exclusive Livity Original Hand-Dyed Tote. This piece features a mesmerizing interplay of two distinct blues—a profound, inky Dark Blue representing the deep abyss, and a vibrant Sky Blue evoking the sunlit shallows.

Hand-dyed in our Canberra studio, this design utilizes a "Spiral" resist technique adapted for the unique canvas of a tote bag. Because of the bag's size, the spiral is not a rigid, perfect coil, but rather an organic, abstract formation. The result is a visual texture that looks like churning ocean currents or waves crashing together—a calming yet dynamic piece of functional art.

🌟 Key Features & Exclusivity

  • Original Design: Completely One-of-a-Kind (OOAK); the fluid nature of the dye ensures no two bags are ever identical.

  • Pattern: Organic "Ocean Swirl" creating a sense of depth and movement.

  • Color Palette: Two-tone Blue (Deep Navy & Bright Sky Blue).

  • Artisan Process: Features a loose spiral resist technique that allows the colours to blend naturally like water.

  • Material: 100% Natural Calico Cotton (Eco-friendly and durable).

  • Dimensions: 38cm x 42cm (Standard Shopper Size).

🧼 Care & Construction (Tie Dye Specific)

We use high-quality dyes and a rigorous rinsing process to ensure colorfastness. However, to keep your functional art looking its best:

  • First Wash: Please wash this item separately in cold water for the first wash to ensure no residual dye release.

  • Regular Care: Machine wash cold with like colors.

  • Drying: Line dry in the shade to prevent sun-fading. Iron on cotton setting if desired.
