Thank you for your understanding! **> Indigo Dyeing** "The color blue is taken from indigo, yet surpasses it." Polygonum tinctorium, an annual herbaceous plant, is the source of indigo dyeing, from which the craft derives its name. Indigo dyeing is a form of plant dyeing. Through repeated immersions and a process full of unforeseen variables, it yields enchanting color gradients and textures. This is the creativity of nature itself, and it's the captivating essence of indigo dyeing, always offering unexpected delights. **> Plant Dyeing** Plant dyeing draws its colors from nature. Different botanicals yield distinct hues, lending fabrics a pure, soft tone and a subtle, fresh fragrance. While initial washes may cause a slight fading, this is akin to colors softened by the passage of time, offering a natural, tranquil, and lived-in character. **> Care Instructions** 1. Traditional plant-dyed items have undergone a water wash and color-fixing treatment. Due to the nature of hand-dyeing, color variations are irregular and uneven; each product will have slight differences. Please be aware of this. 2. Plant-dyed materials are naturally resistant to dirt and perspiration. If soiled, spot clean locally. Cleaning can be done with cold water; do not soak. Avoid vigorous wringing. Do not expose to direct sunlight; hang to dry in a cool, well-ventilated area. 3. You may wear this item daily for washing and light activities without needing to remove it. However, as cotton fabric takes time to dry when wet, which can affect its lifespan, we advise against wearing it while bathing. **The purer the indigo dye, the less chemical treatment is used for color fixation, resulting in a lower colorfastness. However, this characteristic is an integral part of its charm. The fading that occurs with use is beautifully termed 'luò sè' (falling color), and without this natural aging, indigo dye would lose a significant part of its unique allure.**
