Width: 34cm / 13. Length: 125cm / 49"

Vintage Japanese cotton. Hand loomed with beautiful texture.

Hand dipped in natural / botanical indigo. Very deep and rich.

It was once part of a garment taken apart for reuse. There are three small boro patches.

Aizome, Japanese indigo cotton, is highly regarded and collected within Japan and across the world.

‘Ai’ (藍) means indigo and ‘some’ (染め) means dyeing. As a compound, 藍染め, is pronounced ‘aizome’ (ai-zo-me).

Deep shades of rich blue are produced with repeated immersion and airing. The deeper the blue, the higher the number of dips and the higher the value.
