Description

An Explanation for Botanical materials (Herbs / Tree / Vegetable) and Colors.

 

Logwood

#009_Logwood_ILL

 

Logwood give us various blue color. It requires dyeing with another herb before dyeing with actual Logwood. #009 is the one with bright blue, left one on the photo. We are working on improvement for the one on right – dark blue. Because of extra step, the price is $1.00 higher than other regular herb dye thread.

 

Lac Dye

#010_#011_LacDye_ILL

It is popular color in our selection. On the photo, #010 is on the left side / light purple color. On the photo, #011 is on the right side / purple-ish beige color.

 

TriHerb – Three Kinds of Herbs.

#012_Trial_Tri

We tried to create new color – it resulted in interesting beige color. We dye #012 with 3 steps. “Baikal skullcap”→”Tangara”→”Western Madder”

 

Western Madder 

#013_#016_WesternMadder_ILL

Western Madder is also popular color. It gives us natural beautiful pink, like Sakura. By using different catalysts in different timing, Western Madder gave us 4 different color.
