●About "Kurume kasuri" / 久留米絣について
"Kurume kasuri" is a traditional cotton textile with 200 years of history, woven in Chikugo area of Southern Fukuoka. "Kasuri" is a Japanse tie-dye technique equivalent to "ikat", which creates patterns by partially binding the yarn before dyeing and weaving. It is considered to be a technique originated in India, and came to Japan in the early 15th century through Okinawa, and spread to mainland Japan including Kurume. There are still about 30 Kurume kasuri weavers in the area, and they are all unique in style.
福岡県南部、筑後地域に残る織物の文化は多様です。200年ほど前にはじまった久留米­絣の技法はikatと呼ばれ、インド発祥の技術と言われています。１４００年頃に沖縄に上陸し、本土に渡って来ました。久留米では１８００年前半から始まったといわれています。現在は３０件ほどの織元が残り、それぞれ特色を出しながら生産を続けています。
This video features several Kurume kasuri weavers in the area, representing the most common modern technique - chemical dyed and machine woven. Although the word "machine" sounds quite industrialized, the looms they use are 60-70 years old vintage looms, and the majority of the process involves handwork.
