A calm colour for practice
Anthracite is a deep, neutral dark-grey shade that creates an ideal background for meditation or quiet yoga. It does not draw the attention, does not show every speck of dust, yet still gives an elegant and serious feel to your practice spot. The cover is made of 100% organic cotton and carries GOTS (Global Organic Textile Standard) certification, which guarantees that environmental and social rules are followed from cotton growing to the finished textile.
What is it for and who is it for?
This is a replaceable outer cover for a meditation mat. Many customers lay it out for a few minutes after waking, sitting on it for breathing or a short period of stillness. Others use it for the closing, seated section after yoga. If you live as a tenant or shared-flat student, the cover is also practical because it stores in little space and quickly turns a corner of the room into a practice spot.
Washable and durable
The cover closes with a zip, so you can take it off and put it back on the inner mat easily. It can be machine-washed at 30 °C on a gentle cycle – without risk of bleaching, the anthracite shade stays well if you wash it with similarly dark items. This way you always sit down on a fresh, clean surface.
Why choose organic cotton?
Organic cotton is grown without synthetic pesticides or artificial fertilisers, and the processing avoids aggressive chemical dyes. This is gentler on the skin (especially if you have sensitive skin or eczema), and a kinder choice for the environment as well. The GOTS mark is a sign of independent verification.
What is in the package and what to keep in mind?
The package contains only the cover; the inner mat is not included – this is practical when you want to replace a worn one. The colour may vary slightly depending on your screen, and may shrink 1-2% after the first wash (this is normal for organic cotton). The cover arrives from India, hand-cut and stitched, giving each piece a small unique touch.
