KYOTO BLACK DYEING
The history of Kyoto black dyeing, "Kyo-Kuro Montsuki Dyeing," goes back to the Heian period. In those days, black dyeing using sumi ink was practiced, mainly for monks' robes and samurai formal wear. During the Edo period, new techniques were introduced, such as "Benishita" and "Aishita," where the fabric was first dyed with red or indigo before the black dye. Back then, a plant-based dye known as "binroji" was used, which was said to make the black garments strong enough to withstand swords. By the Meiji period, Montsuki haori hakama became the formal wear for men, and this dyeing method spread to the general public. Black dyeing involves multiple rounds of pre-dyeing, with each layer building up to create a deep black color. The process is meticulous, requiring the expertise and instinct of skilled dyers to adjust the dye temperature subtly. Kyo-Kuro Montsuki Dyeing became a designated traditional craft in 1979. The pursuit of the ultimate black is not just about the color but also reflects the disciplined spirit of the Japanese people. Enjoy the depth of this "ultimate black."
