- CYANOTYPE -

BETWEEN SCIENCE, ART AND CRAFTSMANSHIP

Cyanotype is an old monochrome photographic process, recognizable by its unique color: Prussian Blue.
Invented in 1842 by the British scientist Sir John F.W. Herschel, it was initially used for botanical research by Anna Atkins (1799–1871) before being more recently introduced into the world of art.

JOUME scarves are dyed using this process, each acquiring a singular shade of blue.

Their creation takes three days, following a very specific choreography, yet the final result depends largely on one element: the sun. Indeed, variations in UV intensity and exposure time produce deeper or lighter blues, making every scarf a unique piece.
