Interwoven fabric Kakishibu dyeing Kakishibu is made by crushing green persimmons, squeezing out the juice, and fermenting and maturing them. The tannins contained in persimmon tannins have high waterproofing, preservative, insect repellent, and durability-enhancing properties, and have long been used as dyes and paints for everyday items such as fishing nets, Japanese umbrellas, furniture, stencils, sake bags, and fans. Green persimmon juice is light green, but if you leave it to ferment and sit, it will gradually turn a dark brown. Our shop’s proud persimmon tannin dyeing is made by repeatedly dipping threads in this persimmon tannin liquid and dyeing them. One of the charms of persimmon tannin is that you can enjoy many different expressions (dyed results) depending on the environment, such as the season, temperature, and humidity. Yarn dyeing Our persimmon tannin fabric is woven using the yarn-dyeing method. The yarn is repeatedly dipped in persimmon tannin liquid and then dried, and the dyed threads are used to weave the fabric, which is then used to make our products. The yarn is dyed all over, so it is dyed all the way through to the inside of the fabric, resulting in a truly tasteful color. We also carry products made with cross-woven fabric, which is woven with different warp and weft threads.
