I have many other items for sale, please see my profile (^^) This is a hand-dyed indigo item, given to me by a friend in Yunnan Province, China. Everything is handmade. The intricate patterns are created by tying cotton thread to match the design of the underdrawing, then repeatedly dyeing the fabric in a natural indigo dye vat over 20 times. After washing and drying, the tied threads are removed to complete the process. ⚠️‼️ Due to international circumstances, the weak yen, and the impact of the coronavirus, the production volume in the local area is decreasing year by year due to labor costs, a shortage of technicians, and a decrease in the production of natural indigo. High-quality handmade items with fine patterns are becoming very rare and expensive. ● The dye color is richer and the fabric feels thicker than items found in kimono and Japanese goods stores. There will be no new arrivals. I am selling this item for less than 1/3 of the original selling price. Fabric size: Approximately 180cm x 140cm (No. 102323) The display table is 120cm wide x 75cm deep x 35cm high. 100% cotton, hand-dyed indigo Sashiko stitching: Yes Color Fastening, Usage, and Washing Tips: ● Color Fastening Dissolve a generous amount of salt (about 1 tablespoon) in cold water (500cc-1L, enough to fully submerge the fabric) in a plastic bag. Soak the fabric in the solution, remove the air, and leave it overnight. Gently wash with water, remove the salt, and dry in the shade. This will set the natural indigo dye, remove the brownish-green discoloration, and restore the original vibrancy of the indigo. If the color becomes dull during use, you can use this method again to restore its vibrancy. By repeating this process, you can enjoy the gentle blue color unique to indigo for a long time! ● Usage Be careful as the color may transfer if used with light-colored fabrics or leather products due to friction. Be careful when using it as a bed cover or sofa cover. It is recommended to use it after repeating color fastening and washing several times. ● Washing Since the indigo dye will bleed during washing, the color may transfer, so it should not be washed with other items for at least 2-3 times. At my home, I use it as a tablecloth and bed cover. The fabric is thick and sturdy, and it is a beloved item that I can enjoy the changing colors of for a long time. ※ Although it is wrapped in wrapping paper and stored in a cool, dark place, due to the cotton material and natural indigo dye, the areas exposed to air may slightly discolor due to the oxidation of the dye. This can be alleviated by repeating color fastening and washing several times. Please refrain from purchasing if you are concerned about the color unevenness. #IndigoTablecloth #NaturalPlantDye #GenuineIndigoDye
