● What is Indigo Dyeing (Aizome)?Indigo dyeing is a traditional technique that uses natural indigo to dye cloth or paper blue. Indigo dyeing has been practiced since ancient times not only in Japan but around the world; in Japan specifically, indigo-dyed products are known as "Japan Blue."
The indigo dyeing process is as follows:1. **Fermentation**: Indigo leaves are fermented to create the dye.2. **Dyeing**: Cloth or paper is immersed in the indigo dye solution and then exposed to oxygen to turn blue.3. **Oxidation**: The dyed cloth or paper is oxidized in the air to set the color.
Indigo dyeing is widely used for clothing, Washi paper, and crafts due to its beautiful deep blue color and durability.
