BOGLAN / MUD DYE
Bogolan/Mud Dye is a Malian textile dyed using an age-old technique that's familiar to Burkina Faso, Guinea, Côte d'Ivoire and Senegal. The word bogolan, from the Bambara language, derives from the words bogo, meaning ‘the earth’, and lan,meaning ‘from’. Base tinctures are generated by soaking fabric in a decoction of African birch leaves (n'galama) and later being left to dry in the sun. Following the base tinctures, the designs are made in fermented mud with the help of a delicate brush.
