Aizome Clothing That’s Gentle on the Environment
Located in Kaiyo, in the southern-most part of Tokushima prefecture, Hi-COLOR handworks uses the beautifully clean water of the Kaifu River for both everyday purposes and aizome indigo dyeing. The Kaifu River is one of 36 rivers in Japan known for its beauty and water quality.
Our indigo plants are grown organically without pesticides, and all our dye is made by hand in our studio using a traditional Japanese fermentation process.
Although rare in Japan, we also use the mud created from the natural mineral spring of a nearby temple for mud dyeing.
We also produce and sell seasonal plant-based and vegetable dyes, and cultivate both Makomo wild rice tea and Holy Basil tea, all of which are sold on site.
We do not use any chemicals or pesticides that could damage the environment or be harmful for the body.
We also offer an overnight stay experience, where you can freely enjoy aizome.

Natural Dye Products
We are recycling-oriented, and our dye work is entirely non-chemical and gentle on the environment.
Our products are available for purchase online, or in-person at local events.
We also accept commission requests from both individuals and companies.
We can also re-dye old, unworn, or stained clothes to give them new life.
Natural dyes are medicinal ones. Ancient Chinese thought promoted the idea of clothing as medicine, that the clothes one wears are a form of external medicine. Plant-based dyeing began with the purpose of absorbing medicinal plants’ effects through the skin.
These dyes are natural and gentle, good for those who worry about sensitive skin.
Health through wearing. Clothes for happy skin.
