Sappanwood (Suoh) Sawdust
$11.95 – $42.95
Description
Sappanwood sawdust is native to SE Asia and India and makes a rich, pinkish red when calcium carbonate is added to the dye bath. It is one of the “exotic” red wood dyes. People traded it along the Silk Road and medieval dyers often used it. When used from 50-100% on the weight of fiber (WOF), the color is a rich deep red on wool and the color is easily modified with calcium carbonate, iron or even unmordanted. You can reuse the dye bath and the sawdust until exhausted, creating lighter shades. For details on how to use the sawdust, please visit our how to page.
Sappanwood is also one of the traditional Japanese dyes and we were thrilled with the lovely red shades we achieved on cotton. We used it at 100% wof and had a very strong dye bath for additional shades.
