The small, irregular white “dashes” or lines are indicative of kasuri—a traditional Japanese resist-dye technique where threads are dyed before weaving to create blurred or speckled patterns.
• Weave Structure: The texture and appearance suggest a plain or twill weave with dyed yarns used for patterning.
• Color: Deep indigo or black background with white patterning—very common in kasuri and some Japanese denim/weaving traditions.
• Selvedge Edge: The edges show clean finishing, typical in high-quality woven fabrics (possibly loomstate or shuttle-loom woven).
