{"product_id":"sappanwood-with-dark-siyahi","title":"Organic Cotton Yoga Mat – Sappanwood Dark Siyahi Dusky Purple, Herbal-Dyed Ayurvedic","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis deep, dusky purple begins with sappanwood (Raktaka), a red heartwood prized in Ayurveda. The raw cotton is first steeped in harda (myrobalan), a fruit that helps the plant colour bind naturally to the fibre. It is then dyed in a slow-simmered bath of sappanwood, which on its own gives soft reds and pinks. The final step is siyahi: a traditional iron water, fermented over weeks from iron and jaggery. Siyahi gently deepens the red into this rich, earthy purple. The cotton is dyed before it is handwoven, so every mat carries the natural variations of the process.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis Ayurvastra yoga mat is handwoven from luxuriously soft organic cotton and coloured using traditional plant-based dyeing methods rooted in India’s textile heritage. The subtle tonal variations reflect the artistry of slow, mindful craftsmanship, giving each mat a quietly distinctive presence.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePrepared according to the ancient Ayurvastra process, the fibres are treated with a herbal decoction known as Kashayam, then triple-washed with fresh water and soapnut before being air-dried in the shade. This careful, low-impact method preserves the breathability, natural softness, and integrity of the cloth.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHandloomed by artisan weaving communities and produced through an ethical, low-waste process, the mat features a natural latex backing for reliable non-slip performance. The breathable cotton surface is sweat-resistant and comfortable underfoot, offering a supportive, skin-friendly foundation for yoga, rest, and daily rituals. Fully biodegradable and crafted with care at every stage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eKey features\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNatural latex backing for non-slip grip\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSweat- and slip-resistant\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e100% toxin-free\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNatural and eco-friendly\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHandloomed by artisan weaving communities\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEthically produced, biodegradable, zero-waste process\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCharged with the invocation of the Gayatri Mantra\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOrganic cotton, hand-dyed with botanical medicinal plant dyes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInfused with Kashayam – 22 Ayurvedic herbs, tridoshic balancing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAir-dried in the shade; medicinally infused and energetically prepared\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"_p_1thwv_144\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAvailability and Ordering\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"_p_1thwv_144\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eItems we currently hold in stock will be dispatched straight away.
