SOME SHO - 染昌 -
Natural textiles dyed by hand with botanical colors from Kamiyama, Tokushima, Japan.
We combine selected color and textile from plant sources. We use indigo, persimmon tannin, pomegranate juice and any other natural materials for our dyeing. Besides, our items are made of natural fibers mainly cotton, hemp and silk.
We use traditional dyeing technique peculiar to Japan since ancient times.
Our commitment is to express the simple and sophisticated Japanese nature-based spirit through our production.(We infuse new blood into the old tradition. )We hope all of you feel comfortable with our items.
(The way of handling our produsts)
Important Steps for Enjoying Everlasting Natural Colors
All our products are colored using natural, non-synthetic dyes.
Compared to synthetic chemical dyes, natural dyes set less deeply in fabric
and require extra care. We recommend employing the following natural
washing techniques:
Wash each item separately by hand in lukewarm water. Avoid harsh
chemical detergents, by only using natural and neutral detergents and
soaps. Finally hang-dry in the shade to avoid the effects of sun bleaching.
Be aware dye may bleed and transfer when wet.
Some of our products include hemp. Hemp fabrics may become rough and pilly more easily than other fibers. Avoid excessive rubbing, folding, twisting, and over drying to maintain the fabric's quality as all of these factors may lead to damage over time.
We never mass produce, and take pride in the artisanal value of each hand-dyed item we make. Made one-by-one with care our beautiful fabric products will vary slightly in color and appearance. Please be aware that our
hand dyed process means each product is one of a kind and no two products are ideatical. We would be honored if you would make this carefully hand-dyed fabric part of your daily life for years to come. Thank you!
