Sachio Yoshioka is the Fifth-Generation head of the Somenotsukasa Yoshioka Dye Workshop in Fushimi, Southern Kyoto. When he succeeded to the family business back in 1988, he abandoned the use of synthetic colors in favor of dying solely with plants and other natural materials. 30 years on, the Workshop produces an extensive range of extremely beautiful colors.
