Description
| *Traditional mud dyeing and indigo blue The beautiful blue of indigo is matched with the traditional Indian patterns of this wonderful cloth. The simple pattern of the mud-dyed (dove-printed) fabric and its calm texture will never bore you. In the mud-dyeing process, a paste of mud, which prevents the fabric from being dyed, is applied to a wood block (wooden plate) with a pattern carved on it and pressed onto the cloth. Then, wheat hulls are sprinkled over the paste and onto the cloth. Then the wheat hulls will stick to the mud and dry in the sun. Then we soak them in the indigo dye solution, let them dry, and stamp them again with a wood block... This process is repeated over and over again until the indigo blue color is achieved. The history of this mud-dyeing process is said to have started around the 8th century near the village of Akola in India, and it is a process with a long history. *I visited a village where mud-dyed cloth using Indian indigo is produced (video) *About the workshop, the craftsmen, and the method of making Here is an article about the actual workshop where the products are made and the people who make them. We hope you will take a look at it from the link above. *These products can be used for a variety of purposes. This cloth has beautiful shades of indigo and blue, and the handmade pattern of wood blocks is also very beautiful. It can be used not only as a handicraft fabric but also as a cover for interior decorations and as a decorative fabric in various places. It can be used for sofa covers, curtains, tablecloths, and many other purposes. The natural texture of the fabric makes it great for use as an original scarf or wall decoration. *Conveniently measured! This fabric has a calm and tasteful atmosphere that can be used for a variety of purposes depending on your ideas. It is sold in measured quantities, so you can purchase only the amount you need. *Please order in 90cm increments. Also, since the fabric is handmade and dyed with indigo, the longest length of a single piece of fabric will be about 3m. We will do our best to keep the fabric connected, but there may be times when we have to split it up. If you would like your order to be tied together, please make sure to mention it in the remarks column. |

インドらしい伝統的な模様にインディゴの美しい青がマッチングした素敵な布です。泥染め(ダブプリント)によるシンプルなパターンの連なりと落ち着いた風合いは見ていて決して飽きることがありません。
泥染めは、布地が染まるのを防ぐ泥状のペーストを模様が彫られたウッドブロック(木版)につけて布に押していきます。そして布につけたペースとへ、細かくなった小麦の籾殻を撒きます。そうすると小麦の皮が先ほどの泥にくっついてくれるので天日干しします。
そして藍染めの液に浸しては乾かし、またウッドブロックで判子を押して…ということを綺麗なインディゴの青になるまで何度も繰り返し大変手間暇をかけ作られています。この泥染めの歴史は、インドのアコラ村付近で8世紀頃から始まったと言われており歴史のある製法です。
