Valley Botanic Dye T-Shirt Level 4 - Amur Indigo
Amur cork, derived from a deciduous tree native to East Asia, belongs to the Rutaceae family and is renowned for its medicinal properties and versatile practical applications. Beyond its role in fabric dyeing, amur cork held diverse uses in ancient China. It was highly valued for dyeing not only fabrics but also significant documents like scriptures and account books, ensuring their long-term preservation.
The process continues with hand stenciling, each movement measured, each placement deliberate, as steady hands guide the stencil with disciplined care. This exacting approach transforms each piece, balancing organic dye variations with unwavering human precision.
Embarking on an orchestrated journey, the garments undergo a meticulous process to capture a vintage allure. Submerged in a bath of faded indigo, the fabric absorbs the essence of time, acquiring a worn and weathered appeal. Guided by hand, the fabric is selectively distressed, each intentional mark contributing to the overall vintage aesthetic. A final touch is bestowed as amur cork dye is applied, infusing the fabric to captivate the worn in look.
