Custom Ethnic Bandana — Silk Georgette with Tonal Embroidery
We make ethnic bandana built around celtic knotwork, produced in Silk Georgette with tonal embroidery. On ethnic bandana the decision that matters most is wrap hold so the scarf stays in place through a full day of wear, so that is fixed in the tech pack before cloth is bought — not discovered on the first bulk lot. Programmes start at 500 pieces per style per colour and ship to Rotterdam or Felixstowe.
The failures here are predictable: trim and fringe that loosens after the first wash, and colour drift between the approved lab dip and the bulk cloth. We lock the specification before bulk — cloth, trim, dye lot, hem finish and tolerance — and prepare REACH and GPSR documentation so shipments clear instead of sitting at port while the spring tourist season passes.

Care, packing and delivery
Each piece is folded, tissue-wrapped and packed to the ratio you specify, with barcodes and hangtags applied where the retail channel needs them. Care labelling follows the destination's rules. We ship to Rotterdam or Felixstowe with the commercial invoice, packing list and certificate of origin, and hold the approved specification on file so reorders reproduce the same cloth, the same shade and the same wrap hold.
FAQ
How do you control colour on reorders?
The approved lab dip and the bulk reference are retained, and every reorder is checked against them before shipment.
How long does sampling take?
A first sample takes 10 working days, and each revision about 5 days.
Can you do small runs across many designs?
Yes — many gift shop and boutique programmes run small quantities across a wide design set.
What is the minimum order?
Programmes start at 500 pieces per style per colour. Mixed size runs are fine within one style.
