Please note: Due to variations in computer monitors and the unique nature of natural dyeing processes, the colors you see may differ slightly from the actual product. While we strive for consistency, the Amber color, in particular, is derived from natural dyes and can exhibit a range of shades, from its typical amber hue to various tones of red or pink.
