Description
| This 2-way bag is made of a patchwork of indigo-dyed cloth of the Mosi tribe and indigo tie-dyed cloth of the Bamileke tribe. *Mossi Tribe The Mossi are an ethnic group living in the savanna region of West Africa, centering on Burkina Faso, and are well known for their lack of writing. Instead of writing, they use drum language, which is said to be able to convey complex messages and subtle nuances that cannot be conveyed in words. *Indigo Dyeing of the Mossi Tribe Handwoven on horizontal looms widely used in West Africa, narrow strips of cloth are sewn together horizontally to form one large piece of cloth. Yorubaindigo or Indian indigo is used for indigo dyeing, and the natural dyeing process is still carried on today. Women spin cotton into yarn, which is then woven into cloth by men. The indigo dyer then dyes the cloth. *Bamileke indigo tie-dyed cloth This indigo-dyed cloth is made by the Bamileke people living in the southwestern part of Cameroon. The cloth is made of cotton fabric woven 5-6 cm wide and sewn together to form a cloth 80-200 cm in size, which is then tie-dyed with indigo. The men draw patterns on the cloth, and the women sew and tie the patterns with raffia fibers and dye them with indigo. The patterns are often combined with various motifs, such as those of a king's chamber or temple, farmland, or animals. #Upcycling |

The photo is an image only.
Patterns and colors may differ from those in the photos. There is some error in size Because it is a product that uses old cloth, there is the case that there is a scrape * dirt, etc. There is the case that there is color fading because it is natural dyeing. Please explain to the customer at the time of sale so that you can be careful when combining with light-colored clothing or storing at home. The reverse side is made of indigo-dyed fabric from Thailand, not indigo-dyed fabric from the Mosi tribe. |

#Upcycling
■モシ族
ブルキナファソを中心とした西アフリカのサバンナ地帯に居住している民族で、文字を持たないことでもよく知られています。彼らは文字を持たないかわりにドラムランゲージ（太鼓ことば）を使い、複雑なメッセージも言葉では伝えきれないような微妙なニュアンスまで伝えることができると言われています。
■モシ族の藍染め
西アフリカで広く使われている水平織機による手織りで、細幅の帯状に織られた布を横に縫い繋ぎ、大きな一枚の布にしています。藍染めに使われているのは、ヨルバインディゴやインド藍で、今でも天然染めが継承されています。女性が綿を紡いで糸にし、その糸を織って布にするのは男性の仕事です。それを藍染め師が染め上げます。
■バミレケ藍絞り染め布
カメルーン南西部に居住するバミレケ族による藍染め布です。幅5〜6cm程度に織った綿の生地を縫い合わせて80〜200cm程の大きさにし、そこに藍で絞り染めを施します。 男性が布に模様を描き、女性がその模様をラフィアの繊維で縫い絞り、藍で染める作業を行います。描かれる模様には、王の部屋や神殿を意味するものから農地や動物を意味するものなど様々なモチーフが組合わせられています。
