Itajime is one technique of shibori which uses pieces of wood clamped together around sections of folded fabric to resist the dye in particular shapes. Each 3m section of fabric is individually folded, clamped, tied and dyed; and this repeated several times to get layers of colours. It's a time consuming and exacting technique with bold geometric results.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn Bhuj, clamp dye techniques came into practice around 35 years ago. During that time, clamp dyeing techniques were used on traditional lungis (sarongs) to produce various designs. This was a short-lived trend, however and the technique went out of use after some 5 years. The Khatri brothers re-introduced the process in Bhuj and now create some of the finest itajime, clamp-dyed textiles in India.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAny variations or irregularities are part of the design and inherent to the production process.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Jumeirah Road","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42190404747345,"sku":"HOWSIDRBM","price":775.0,"currency_code":"AED","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0647\/4845\/3969\/files\/blackmaroonDR.jpg?v=1739261135","url":"https:\/\/jumeirahroad.com\/products\/black-maroon-silk-itajime-dune-robe","provider":"J R Ethical Fashion","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
