Myrobalan, Tannin for Natural Dyeing, Plant Dye, Terminalia chebula

from $8.99
Priced and sold by 1 or 2 oz bag.

Myrobalan, Terminalia, chebula, powder is a dye powder from the finely ground nuts of the myrobalan tree. It is a Tannin and Flavonoid, and gives light yellow colors, or olive greens if you add iron.

Myrobalan is an excellent source of tannins and nearly all cotton textiles in India are treated with myrobalan before being mordanted. The pale yellow dye is very wash and lightfast, and gives delicate greens if overdyed with indigo. Even though Myrobalan is a tannin, it is considered a mordant dye, that should be used with a mordant.

Use 20-30% weight of fiber when used as a dye, or 10-20% when used as a tannin prior to mordanting cellulose.


I'll include a sheet with this information on it with your order.
