Description

A very soft large size silk stole is dyed with purple roots. There are vertical and horizontal lines, so it reflects light and has a delicate luster. You can feel pink depending on the amount of light. I took my time to dye it slowly in order to dye it in a gentle light purple mauve color. The size is about 91 cm x about 175 cm. 66g. It’s a large size, so try putting it on when it’s a little chilly. It feels like being enveloped in the kindness that is unique to vegetable dyeing. Purple root dyeing, dyeing cloth and threads using shikonin pigment, which is abundant in the roots. In addition to being a dye, it has anti-inflammatory and skin repairing effects, and is a beneficial and medicinal plant that is also used in herbal medicines and cosmetics. Indigo, safflower, and purple root are the three major Japanese pigments that are used as herbal medicines and as dyes. The germination rate of the purple layer is very low, and cultivation techniques have not yet been established, so wild “Japanese purple” is designated as an endangered species. Please enjoy the gentle flower lover-like colors dyed with precious purple root. Silk is a natural fiber known for its high “protective and repairing effect” on the skin, so much so that it is used for “medical care”. Since it is an animal fiber that protects and nurtures silkworm babies, it has “heat retention and moisture release” and “UV protection effect”, so it can be used all year round. Gift wrapping is available free of charge. Please let us know in dealings Navi. *Also sold at other locations.

There is a possibility of “color fading” for vegetable dyeing. Please wash separately. Light “hand washing” with a neutral detergent is recommended. Lightly press and wash in water or lukewarm water (about 30 degrees) mixed well with a small amount of “neutral detergent” (fashionable detergent such as Emar Akron). Rinse gently, dry with a towel, and dry in the shade. (2 to 3 minutes for the entire process) Iron at medium temperature with a pressing cloth. Vegetable dyeing will gradually change color due to exposure to sunlight for a long time, citrus juice, sweat, aging, etc. If you leave the product folded up in a bright place for a long time, the folded part may get sunburnt. When not in use, please store it in a place where light does not enter, such as a box or closet. When storing “wool” or “silk products” for a long time, it is safe to store them together with a “drying agent” or an unscented “insect repellent”.
