Frequently asked questions

Care instructions

All of Corcortez organic silk ribbons are washable and I highly encourage you to wash as needed and re-use them.
Because the ribbons are dyed with living color pigments, the color is effected by a smallest change in pH or added chemicals. Please remember, to only use pH neutral soap if needed. You can also wash your ribbons in the washing machine on a gentle cycle with pH neutral chemicals. Ribbons can be hung to dry and ironed. Our ribbons will naturally fray after multiple uses.

Are the ribbons colors accurate with what I see in the photos?

Silk has a natural prism-like structure which refracts incoming light at different angles. This is what gives silk ribbon it’s iridescent appearance. Plant dyes also have a similar reaction to light and they create a living color that changes and adapts to it’s surrounding. Plant dyes create complex colors that contain a variety of pigments. For this reason, colors may appear to change depending on the lighting. Although no photograph can compare to the actual product in person, great care has gone into photographing in natural light for color accuracy.

What are the fabrics we are working with?

We are working with several silk types, such as pongee, chiffon, georgette and baronette silk, that are made from 100% natural silk fabric. All of the fabrics used by Corcortez are either biodegradable or can be easily re-used and recycled. For more info on each of silk types and in-depth description, please go to 'About' section at our main Etsy Shop page.

Where are our dyes come from?

Our dyes come from a variety of sources. We source all the dye material from both international and domestic sources. If there are any imported dyes, all of them are Fair Trade and sustainably sourced. Our local dye materials are organically grown or foraged by us or our family and friends.

Custom and personalized orders

We are more then happy to create a custom order for you. Natural dyes have endless color possibilities and we'd love to collaborate and create something special for your unique occasion. Please note, that all pieces are created by hand and the custsom orders take a little bit more time then our usual ones, as we take our time to find the most ideal plant dye combination to match your unique color.
To order a silk ribbon made especially for you, we would kindly ask you to place a CUSTOM ORDER via our main Etsy Shop page.
