This is an experience of the traditional plant dyeing "Kazuno purple root dyeing / Akane dyeing" that still remains in Kazuno City, Akita Prefecture. "Ancient Shikakaku Shine-zome / Akane-zome", which has been handed down from the Nara period 1300 years ago, was once cut off due to the introduction of chemical dyes in the Meiji era, but it was reconstructed in the Taisho era. It was Mr. Bunjiro Kuriyama, who became a Living National Treasure. It was his son Bunichiro Kuriyama who handed it down. In the past, a lot of Japanese purple roots and Akane grew naturally in the fields of Kazuno, and purple root dyeing and madder dyeing using their roots prospered as an industry. Alongside, it developed as one of Japan's three major purples. Kazuno purple root dyeing and Akane dyeing, which are said to be particularly colorful and unique in Japan, were presented to Ise Jingu and the imperial family. The Kuriyama family's purple root dyeing and Akane dyeing, which have not faded even after 90 years and have become deeper and deeper as time goes by, and have been hailed as "the cloth on which the god sits," are the result of dedicated efforts that preserved traditional techniques. In March 2021, the members of the Kazuno Shine Dyeing and Akane Dyeing Study Group finally revived this traditional technique, which had been cut off after the death of Mr. Bunichiro Kuriyama. In this "Kazuno purple root dyeing / Akane dyeing" experience, the members of the study group will carefully teach you how to dye with history.
