Olive Grove Adire

Authentic Àdìrẹ textile is created through a process of indigo resist-dyeing that involves creating a pattern on fabric and preventing it from absorbing the dye. 

Three types of techniques are commonly used to achieve this effect: Oniko (raffia resist), Alabere (needle resist) and Eleko, (cassava paste resist. 

Modern day Àdìrẹ also includes tie-dye, wax resist batik techniques and alternative dyes other than indigo. 

Fabric size is 4 yards 30in.
