Batiste 10.5

At first glance this fabric seems to be synthetic but it actually only consists of high quality silk and extremely smooth, fine and high-gloss bamboo yarns! The batiste has a mysterious shimmer and an exceptional flowing, cool grip. Unbelievable but true: it only consists of pure natural fibers! Incredible for the 2 color dye technique and as a shot fabric this fabric shimmers in an almost metallic way.

What seems more likely than painting a bamboo/silk-batiste with a bamboo pattern? This pattern was first dyed with two colors. The bamboo fibers absorb the viscose colors in a water bath without any problems. Yellow color for the cellulose fibers, blue for the silk. After drying the fabric was stretched and the bamboo pattern was painted on. Afterward a layer of black silk paint was applied, which only colored the unreserved parts.

Hier wurde ebenfalls mit Wachs gearbeitet. Nach einer Grundierung des Batists mit roséfarbener Seidenmalfarbe wurde mit einem breiten Borstenpinsel ein Karomuster aus Wachs aufgetragen. Die entstandenen Zwischenräumen wurden mit dunkleren Farbtönen ausgemalt, die chinesischen Schriftzeichen wurden mit einem Pinsel und verdickter Seidenmalfarbe auf die Seide gezeichnet.
