Cotton Fabric - 20 Solid Mimosa

[About Kurume Kasuri]
A retro belt-driven power loom system from the Showa era, where 20 looms operate from a single motor.
This Kurume Kasuri weaving workshop was founded in 1948.
It is one of Japan's representative traditional yarn-dyed textiles.
Features a soft texture close to handwoven fabric.
With over 30 mostly manual processes, each fabric takes 2-4 months to complete.

[About Solid Kurume Kasuri]
Kurume Kasuri is known for its "kukuri" (binding) technique that creates many diverse patterns,
but even when woven on a power loom, it retains a distinctive handwoven-like softness.
Processes such as warping, weaving, and finishing are done with minimal stress on the yarn,
and many steps continue to be carried out by hand.
This texture, passed down through generations of artisans, has long been appreciated.
Even without the kukuri process, as in solid or striped fabrics,
the same craftspeople complete the weaving with identical care,
resulting in a softness recognized by many fabric enthusiasts.
