blue over red makes purple
I have noticed on a few Shahsavan sumacs that it appears that purple may be obtained by overdying red with indigo. So, as is common with some greens, the indigo rubs off leaving the red (or in the case of green, yellow) behind.
Here is an example Has anyone else encountered this? Is this a common practice? Is it limited to a particular group of dyers? I have most often seen it on mafrash panels with this drawing. Thanks Jim Last edited by Jim Miller; February 11th, 2021 at 08:49 PM. |
