ABOUT

Plant dyeing has been a unique practice for Chinese people to harmonize with nature since ancient times, embodying a symbiotic relationship with the environment. In spring, mugwort was utilized for cloth dyeing, while midsummer saw Dioscorea batatas creating mud silk. As autumn arrived, fallen leaves were employed to make rubbings on cloth, and in winter, peach branches were boiled to dye fabric. Throughout the year, various natural dyes were used, yielding a spectrum of hues including yellow, green, gold, and brown, influenced by diverse mordants and fabric types. As the seasons passed, plants transitioned from earthy origins to become the vibrant colors of nature, ingrained in our fabrics.

IMPORTANT

⚬ The traditional boiling method in dyeing may lead to slight imperfections as fabric is directly immersed in the dye vat, which are unavoidable. Also, since plant dyeing doesn't use chemical fixing, colors may gradually fade over time due to exposure to light and wear/washing.

⚬ As each production has slightly color difference, please purchase enough length for your project as it will have color difference in two purchases.
