bottle peeping

This is the lightest indigo dye color. Also known as peeki-iro, this color is dyed by dipping the fabric only once in a jar of indigo. The dyeing industry was established by the end of the Muromachi period (1333-1573), and at that time, the light indigo color was called hitoshiozome. Hitori" means to dip something once in dye, and it is used to describe a situation in which one's whole heart is dyed. It seems pure and unadulterated.
