Searching all of Japan for handcrafted items that express its heart and soul, our proprietor, KASHIYUKA, presents things that bring a bit of luxury to everyday life. This time our trip took us to Amami Ōshima in Kagoshima prefecture, where we delved into a technique characteristic of the island called dorozome, mud-dyeing. It’s used to color the fabric that will be used for the local traditional kimono, called Ōshima tsumugi.

  • With a history of over 1,300 years, dorozome, mud-dyeing, has been employed expressly in the coloring of the fibers used, as well as for the process of kasuri, a hand-dyeing technique, in the making of kimono textile known as Ōshima tsumugi. Here, with Mr. Kanai Yukihito, who has been working to produce a wide range of items using the traditional techniques, our shopkeeper KASHIYUKA chooses furoshiki (wrapping cloths) dyed with doro, or plain mud (left); aidoro, a mix of indigo and mud (center); and indigo (right).
  • Purchase No. 74【Dorozome】The beautiful dye method brought forth from Amami's island nature, and into everyday life.
  • The mud particles are so fine that it’s like a cosmetic facial pack.
