Product Information

Are all Santai products handmade?

Yes. Every Santai piece is individually handmade in our London home studio.
This process ensures that every piece feels special, unique, and thoughtfully made.

How do I care for my Santai accessories?

Santai accessories are machine washable at 30°C using a gentle cycle. We recommend placing them inside a laundry bag to help protect the fabric during washing.

Please do not tumble dry or use bleach. After washing, lay your item flat to dry naturally to maintain its shape. If the fabric becomes wrinkled, you can lightly steam it to smooth out any creases.
