About this book,
This book contains 87 samples of traditional Japanese handwoven cotton fabrics dyed with indigo, mounted within its pages. The quality of each fabric is truly remarkable.

About our store
We offer a fine selection of beautiful woodcut books, design books and woodblock prints made in Japan. Many of our books were used as reference materials for Japanese industrial design some 150-50 years ago. Their designs are surprisingly unique and beautiful, and seem to compare favourably or even surpass contemporary designs. We hope that our design books will be used in contemporary design.
Woodblock printing as a printing technique is also amazingly precise, but at the same time offers a unique and beautiful texture.
We hope you enjoy our collection of Eirando Books.
