[About Kurume Kasuri]Kurume Kasuri is a traditional pre-dyed woven fabric originating from Kurume, established in 1948. Operating on a unique setup of 20 interconnected retro-style power looms driven by a single motor, reminiscent of the Showa era, this fabric embodies the essence of Japanese craftsmanship. It features a soft texture akin to hand-weaving and requires an intricate manual process spanning over 30 steps and taking 2 to 4 months to complete. Perfect for those seeking to create meticulously crafted traditional Japanese pieces.[Weaving Characteristics]The "Tategami" technique, using warp threads exclusively to depict patterns, is also known as "itagasuri." By employing 30/2 threads for the pattern and 40/2 threads for the background, the fabric attains a subtle textured appearance and emphasizes the pattern's hues.[Specifications]Warp Thread: 40/2, 30/2Weft Thread: 16/1Fabric Thickness: Standard+, Soft100% Chemical Dye100% CottonWidth: Approximately 37~38 cmFinished with hot water and sun drying (Shrinks by about 10%, allowing for direct cutting and sewing after purchase)[Notes]Sold in 6-meter incrementsPrices are per 6 metersColors may appear slightly different in real life compared to photos.Yellow 1403, Black, Whit, 16/1 Naslar, Light Beige Show more
