Bingata polychrome resist dyeing
Bingata polychrome resist dyeing Bingata (“colored pattern”) is a type of paste-resist dyed fabric with polychromatic designs produced around Shuri in Okinawa prefecture. The style is characterized by vivid colors and designs with gradations or “shaded” edges. Conventionally, bingata is contrasted with paste-resist dyed fabrics in indigo monochrome called ēgata (“indigo pattern”). While the paste resists for bingata are typically applied using stencils, the patterns may also be drawn freehand.
