◇About Kaga yuzen
Kaga yuzen began around 500 years ago. In the middle of 17th century, a dyeing method called "Kaga okunizome" was perfected. Based on the techniques of iroe patterns, Kaga yuzen is finely crafted expressing natural beauty with five gradated colors - navy, dark red, ocher, grass green and ancient purple.
On top of the idea of design, it goes through nine processes before being completed, such as rough sketching, masking, coloring, texture dyeing, washing, etc.
