Some prefer nettles

A sumptuous blend of silk and cotton woven into a refined and mysterious pattern, Some Prefer Nettles embodies both luxury and ethical craftsmanship. The silk is crafted through the eri silk process, a unique and sustainable method that produces ahimsa or “no-kill” silk, preserving the silk moths and allowing them to complete their natural life cycle.

The name references Jun'ichirō Tanizaki’s novel, Some Prefer Nettles, a cornerstone in the dialogue between Eastern and Western aesthetics. Tanizaki’s work explored cultural dualities, celebrating the depth and subtlety found within traditional Japanese forms while engaging Western critical thought.
