Summary
This is persimmon powder and dye fabric with orange-brown. Kakishibu has been used as a Japanese dye for over 800 years when it came from China. Because of its antiseptic and waterproofing properties, it is also used to coat Shibugami, or Japanese traditional stencil paper. Its main ingredient is tannin.

Dyeing method
Kakishibu liquid is made by the following process.

Both dip-dyeing (浸染) and bristle-dyeing (引き染) are done at room temperature. Please note that wrinkles in the cloth when drying will cause unevenness.
Dyeing has to be repeated after drying. Exposure to sunlight will deepen the color.
When you try bristle-dyeing (引き染), we recommend using special bristles called Hikibake (引刷毛) for it.
