Red and yellow grenade apron

42,00  VAT INCLUDED

A red and yellow pomegranate apron built on a warm, festive palette, this piece prints ripe fruit and small leaves across a cotton that combines sunny yellow with touches of red. The pattern carries a generous, celebratory feel, suited to a kitchen preparing for guests.

Each pomegranate is printed by hand with a carved wooden block, in an artisan workshop in India, from a design conceived in France. The rounded shape of the fruit and its small crown are captured through careful, repeated hand printing, motif by motif across the cotton.

Couleur Nature has worked with block printing for more than thirty years, linking a design studio in France with artisan workshops in India where the technique has been practiced for generations. Every wooden block used for this red and yellow pomegranate apron is carved by hand before it ever touches a length of cotton, and no two printers press it in quite the same way. That small human variation is part of what separates a hand block-printed apron from anything produced by machine, and it is exactly what the brand has built its reputation on since the beginning.

This red and yellow pomegranate apron is made for real use. It ties at the waist, covers the chest and the top of the legs, and gives you solid protection while you cook, bake or prepare a festive meal that involves more dishes than usual. The apron sits comfortably over everyday clothes, whether you are standing at the stove for a quick weeknight dinner or spending a whole afternoon on a more ambitious recipe.

The cotton is sturdy and designed to withstand frequent hot washing without fading, a necessary quality for a piece that will see plenty of use during busy cooking sessions and celebrations alike.

Paired with a matching tea towel or a set of pot holders from the same pomegranate collection, this yellow and red apron also makes a generous, festive gift for someone who loves to host. It is a small, practical way to bring craftsmanship into a daily routine, rather than keeping it for special occasions only.

Care

General care instructions for artisan-printed cotton table linen:

  • Machine wash at 30°C or 40°C maximum, on a gentle cycle, to help preserve the colours.
  • Do not use bleach or whitening products.
  • Avoid fabric softener, as it may dull the colours over time.
  • Iron on the reverse side of the fabric at a moderate temperature (cotton/wool setting) to preserve the vibrancy of the print.
  • Air dry preferably in the shade; avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight, which may cause the colours to fade.
