- PROFILE
- LITMUS/ Indigo dyeing studio was established by Yuji Matsui and Kazuo Yoshikawa who was fascinated by the indigo dyed smock frock which they found in the antique market. LITMUS is known for its “Ash liquid fermentation” which is a Japanese ancient dyeing method which you add a lye from charcoal, Japanese sake, and wheat into a “Sukumo” dye produced from indigo leaves, which you ferment it by dyeing liquid. They stay royal to these method, but they do not forget to introduce their own Japanese indigo color being freed from the constraints of typical materials and methods.
