Chizu Blue is a cooperative set up and run by local women, making indigo-dyed products the traditional way. At our bright studio, located in Chizu-cho, a post town deep in the Chizu Mountains, we carefully grow indigo plants from seeds, separate indigo leaves and stems, make indigo dye, and dye fabric by hand.

Color and size :
Each product has a different color and size because we make all our products by hand. The color and size of items you see online are different from the actual thing.
Care Instructions :
Indigo pigment dissolves only in basic solutions; therefore, the color of our products neither runs in the wash nor transfers when using a neutral detergent. Avoid using an alkaline detergent or bleach. Please dry in the shade and store in a dark place, as our products gradually fade due to exposure to UV rays.
