These products are dyed with natural dyes by artisans from the Intangible Cultural Heritage Traditions and Intangible Cultural Heritage Production Workshop.

 

The traditional tie-dyeing technique has been used by the indigenous Bai people for about 1,500 years, and the use of plant-derived dyes is typical of the nature-inspired designs. These designs have a really pure and elegant feel to them.

 

In Yunnan, China, people, plants, and animals (including elephants and peacocks) live side by side in harmony. They're often used as motifs in tie-dye designs. These motifs are often used in tie-dye designs, and together with the different patterns that come out during the tie-dyeing process, they create a unique texture.

 

The fusion of traditional techniques and modern design makes for a work with an old-fashioned flavor that can be used for a long time.
