Whether you want to be a smartly dressed baker, crafty type or just generally love to look stylish in indigo, my Guntai ring apron is for you.

They also make a great gift for a family member or friend.

Guntai is an ancient Japanese shibori technique that involves stitching and binding to create side to side bound patterns.

The technique was used in Japan to decorate samurai warlords’ clothing and is often very structured in its form.

I’ve taken the technique and made it my own by applying it in a ring form. The process creates binding patterns that rotate around the ring like a Christmas wreath.

PLEASE NOTE: exact colour of apron and pattern on ring may differ from picture as these are handmade items. It will be very similar though.
