空山 KONGSHAN COAT

PHILOSOPHY

空山 KONGSHAN is the preferred name of many Buddhist monks. It literally means "Empty Mountain". In Buddhist philosophy, the Void is far from the Western conception of the Void as Nothingness and total absence. KONGSHAN embodies the divine power of the Original Nature, far from the hustle and bustle of the cities. With an open heart, a human on his own can become aware of the majesty of the Mountain, which teaches him humility.

Our exceptional KONGSHAN coat embodies the calm strength of the wild Mountain. Its timeless aesthetic reflects the eternal essence of the Mountain. This garment is the perfect choice when you want to feel comfortable but without losing the unique character that defines you. For men or women, it is a timeless piece that will become part of your life history, accompanying you in your best experiences in life.

COMPOSITION

100% indigenous organic cotton

Hand-spinning cotton yarns & handwoven cotton on traditional looms

Indigo dyeing

DYEING

All our garments are naturally dyed with indigo leaves in the mountains of Guizhou. At DEYI 德逸, we only use natural dyes and no chemicals, because we are committed to design while respecting Nature. Thus, our fabrics can present some differences of tone in their surface that depends on local meteorological conditions & on the way in which each artisan has worked the material.

Each fabric is unique: they are a testimony of several days of handmade work. Small imperfections in the weave or dyeing cannot be considered as defects. They are inherent to the artisanal character of our pieces. Imperfections means humans behind your clothes.

TRACEABILITY & SUSTAINABILITY

All our cotton fabrics are made with care and love by our female artisans from the Dong indigenous community, according ancestral gesture. They work in small remote villages in the province of Guizhou, in Rongjiang County. We invite you to read the moving stories of our artisans on our website.

The final garment manufacturing is made in our sewing workshop in Beijing, China. You will find further information about our impact in our commitment section.
