Overview

Teinture Sauvage is a French artisanal natural dyeing company that makes colour exclusively from plants. According to its official website, the brand describes its work as "une teinture 100 % végétale naturelle écologique" — a fully plant-based, natural and ecological dye. Its stated philosophy is to make colour with plants, "sans la dénaturer, jamais contre elle": colour made only from plants, without alum and without synthetic products, applied to exclusively natural and ecological textile fibres, through an artisanal production of plant colour that generates no waste. The brand is known for its natural mordanting approach. Its website highlights "un mordançage sans alun" (alum-free mordanting) and "des mordants naturels" (natural mordants), positioning this as a central technical and ethical difference from conventional dyeing. The resulting colours are described as rich and deep — "la signature des couleurs végétales" — drawn from the hidden treasures of plant colorants. Teinture Sauvage operates on a small, artisanal scale. Its shop produces 100% plant-based colours on embroidery and knitting threads as well as dyeing kits. The brand also runs plant-dyeing workshops ("stages de teinture") where participants can discover dyeing with 100% plants and natural, alum-free mordanting. Its homepage invites visitors to join a newsletter to be informed of the next shop opening and new articles, indicating a boutique model with periodic openings rather than continuous mass retail. Customer testimonials on the site, dated 2020 and 2021, praise the natural character of the dyes, the clarity of the explanations, the research into natural mordants, and the results obtained on different wools. The brand is documented in Wikidata as an "artisanal natural dyeing company" (Q136720843). It is a small independent French craft business rather than a large industrial group, and no parent company, founder name, or founding year is established by the available evidence.
