Madder Introduction

Explore History
Madder is one of our most ancient dyes-the universal red. Cotton textiles from the Indus civilization date to around 3000 B.C. A madder-dyed belt was found in Tutankhamun's grave and archeologists have unearthed madder-dyed fabrics in ancient China. The Andean cultures of Paracus and Nasca used the domestic madder plant Relbunium long before cochineal. Throughout history, madder has most often been used on wool and cotton, as silk was considered so precious it could only be dyed with cochineal.

Dye Technique

Madder is a dye plant one could spend a lifetime exploring. If you are harvesting roots, do not forget to wear long sleeves and gloves to protect yourself from the tiny barbs and spines. Otherwise, use powder or extract to get started. (Visit the new addition to ClothRoads's website under Resources. The section Natural Dyes contains suppliers for natural dyes, classes, workshops, information, and blogs.)

To create a true red you will need to carefully tend your dye bath. If it gets too hot you will end up with brown tones as the heat releases other colorants at higher temperatures. Prepare wool with alum mordant and cellulose fibers with tannin and aluminum acetate for best results. Heat the dye bath to 140 degrees and hold for an hour before adding fibers. Continue to cook for another one to two hours. You can reuse your dye bath several times to obtain lighter shades. Madder loves hard water and you can add a Tum's tablet to your dye bath if your water is soft.
