Only persimmon tannin from the Minamiyamashiro region (present-day Souraku and Tsuduki counties in Kyoto Prefecture), which is said to be of the highest quality, is used. The tannin content of persimmons is richer than those from other production areas.
A large amount of water is essential for dyeing, but we use only mountain water. We do not use tap water.

Kakishibu is a traditional Japanese dyeing which uses the juice of fermented, unripe persimmon fruit. It has the natural antiseptic and insect-repelling effect.
This way of dyeing is sometimes called “the dyeing of the sun”. These colors get deeper and deeper as being lightened by the sun. You can enjoy the changing colors of them. They smells a bit of the natural dyeing liquid when you receive, but it’ll be vanished eventually.
