The Story
“The indigo colour of indigofera tinctoria — the plant that made Tamil Nadu a global dye centre for centuries before synthetic dyes displaced it. This dial is that blue.
Before synthetic dyes, the Indigofera tinctoria plant was one of South India's most valuable exports. The dye it produced — a deep, clear blue — was shipped from Coromandel Coast ports to Europe, where it was worth its weight. This dial holds that colour. Sold out.
