Oigawa Kuzufu Cloth
- Activities
- Shimada
Kudzu cloth was already used in the Neolithic period! Learn about it.
Once upon a time, kuzufu cloth (Japanese arrowroot fiber cloth) was used as clothing for the nobility. We are trying to use kuzufu cloth in clothing like those days. “Oigawa kuzufu cloth” was born from that idea. You can enjoy a short lecture on kuzufu cloth, and try indigo dyeing with rare Ryukyu indigo.
