Hello. What types of dye r being use to dye these beautiful kimono? Also what type of ink is being use to outline the drawing on the silk fabric? I'm just curious because the ink didn't bleed as it is being drawn on. Thank you!
We always use acid dyes because they are good friends with silk fabrics. Ink? Can you tell me which part you are talking about because we don't use any ink to outline on the silk. Thank you.
toomarin Do you mean that is in "Design" part? If so, we don't outline the drawing on the silk. We do that on paper so it doesn't bleed or keep the color of ink in silk.
No more wondering why Kimonos are so expensive & any other handmade fabrics ... Fabulous, extremely beautiful work ...
Which type of glue use for contouring and masking ¿
How is foil added to cloth? glue?
Yup, It's glue.
Also what type of silk is that?
This is 100% silk woven in Tango, Kyoto Prefecture's northern area.
is the paste used to outline the pattern the same paste used to fill them in before brush dying the fabric?
