Product description:[About Kurume Kasuri]
Kurume Kasuri is a traditional pre-dyed woven fabric with a vintage feel, produced using a power loom system consisting of 20 machines connected to a single motor. The weaving mill was established in 1948 in Kurume. It is renowned as one of Japan's representative traditional pre-dyed fabrics. The fabric is known for its soft texture, reminiscent of handwoven materials. The production process involves a significant amount of manual work, requiring 2 to 4 months to complete over 30 steps. Once woven, the fabric undergoes a process of natural drying through hot water treatment, leading to approximately 10% shrinkage, resulting in the final product.

[Characteristics of the Weave]
The fabric features an original pattern by Shimogawa Orimono. The term "stripe" ("shima" in Japanese) originally referred to cotton fabric with vertical stripes imported from foreign countries through Nanban trade. It was called "shima-mono" (island fabric) because it was brought from distant lands ("shima") and later came to be known as "stripe" during the Edo period.
