Quebracho Wood Natural Dye
Shepherd Textiles Quebracho Wood Natural Dye contains the ground heartwood of Schinopsis balansae, a hardwood native to Argentina and Brazil. Quebracho Wood is extremely rich in natural tannins, which help it bond to fiber with or without a metal mordant. It produces warm tan and sandstone shades on all natural fibers, including cotton. It can also be used as a tannic pre-treatment to make cotton more receptive to mordanting. Our Quebracho Wood comes from South American timber that is ground to a fine powder in India. Use it at 25% weight-of-fabric (WOF) for warm natural shades.
Before using, please read our Guide to Dyeing with Quebracho Wood for color recipes, background, and safety information.
