We craft our soaps by cold process in small batches.

In their production, we use 60–70% of our own extra virgin olive oil, sourced from our olive grove named Siyah İnci in Dikili, İzmir, cultivated with good agricultural practices.

Additionally, we include other natural and nourishing oils beneficial for the skin, such as coconut oil, shea butter, cocoa butter, and castor oil.

Thanks to these rich ingredients, our soaps provide both cleansing and moisturizing effects.

We also enrich our soaps with natural minerals such as green clay, pink clay, red clay, bentonite clay, and organic spirulina powder.

Each formula is enhanced with pure essential oils like lavender, bergamot, patchouli, cedar, and others, carrying aromatherapy benefits.

This combination offers a gentle care experience for the skin and a delightful treat for the senses.

Additionally, our skin-friendly formulas contain no synthetic additives, perfumes, colorants, or palm oil.

Our soaps, carefully crafted using natural oils and clays, gently nourish your hands, face, and body while preserving your skin’s natural balance, providing a refreshing and soothing cleanse.

Ideal for daily use, they bring the pure essence of nature into your beauty and care routine. ⚘

We designed these press kits for drying, preserving, collecting, and creatively using wildflowers.

 Choose a fresh, moisture-free flower. Clean the leaves and stems.
Place the flowers between the cardboard and blotting papers using the kit.
Secure the screws or ties to apply pressure.
Leave in a dry, shaded place for 3–14 days.

Once dried, your flowers are ready for collages, crafts, or simply as a botanical herbarium.

We craft our soaps by cold process in small batches.

Each bottle is a tiny elixir inspired by botanical dyeing and old writing traditions.
The idea draws a little from Jane Austen too; legend says a friend used to make her ink.

Now we have our own. Only a limited number.
You’re welcome to take one home, though we cannot promise literary triumphs, only a delightful experience.
Or, if you wish, you can brew your own ink the old way; the recipe waits just below.

We collected oak galls from our garden and nearby fields, then slow brewed them in a beer solution for about eight to ten weeks.

We stirred occasionally, endured the strange scent at first, then strained it all. A touch of acacia gum, a hint of clove oil, and the ink found its voice.

At every step we chose natural and sustainable materials, reusing what we already had.
The result is a simple pleasure for those who cherish handwriting, keep journals and enjoy the quiet joy of slow making.
