Handcrafted Sekka Shibori — See how it is made

What is Sekka Shibori?

Sekka Shibori is a traditional Japanese resist-dyeing technique in which fabric is carefully folded, bound or compressed before dyeing to create distinctive geometric patterns. The preparation of the fabric determines how the dye is absorbed, resulting in the bold, structured motifs that define this art form. Because each stage is carried out by hand, Sekka Shibori is a meticulous and highly skilled textile craft, combining precision, patience and artistic control.
