kakishibu 柿渋(かきしぶ)"persimmon dye"



quote
Calling kakishibu a "dye" is a bit of a misnomer.
Made from the fermented juice of unripe astringent persimmons, the color comes from the tannin molecules linking together and forming a coating. More than a coloring agent, kakishibu also has strengthening, antibacterial and waterproofing properties. Kakishibu was used in China and Korea, but reached its ultimate utilization in Japan. It was used as a wood preservative, waterproofer, insect repellent, folk medicine, and on washi (Japanese paper), fans, parasols, clothing and in sake production.

三日市

親鸞聖人は、立ち寄った家で串柿を食した。その種を三つ植えると、一夜にして芽を出した。それを三本柿と呼び、その地を柿木町とした。木を切ってしまった人は、お叱りをうけた。今では柿の木は芽生であるが、その木と徳法寺の柿の種には、全て焼いたような黒い斑点がある。
