The term "Binalodan" refers to the ikat technique in Iranun and Maguindanaon weaving traditions. Ikat is a centuries-old resist dyeing method used to create intricate patterns on cloth. The Banton burial cloth, the oldest surviving textile in the Philippines, was made using ikat, making Inaul Binalodan an embodiment of ancient craftsmanship and heritage. In Mindanao, there are two types of ikat: warp ikat, common in abaca weaving communities, and weft ikat, produced by the Meranaw, Maguindanaon, and Iranun people. Binalodan Inaul is crafted through the careful pre-dyeing of the weft yarns before weaving, a highly skilled technique that was once prominent in the production of sutra riyal (pure silk cloth). Though synthetic threads have largely replaced pure silk over the past 50 years, the artistry of Binalodan remains one of the most complex forms of Inaul weaving. The distinctive feature of Binalodan lies in its geometric weft-ikat motifs, which are skillfully embedded within bands and interspersed with vibrant solid colors, creating a stunning polychromatic effect. The intricate process involves wrapping dyed threads in banana leaves and drying them under the sun, ensuring that the weft colors stand out against the warp, resulting in a fabric that is both striking and durable. 📌 Why Should You Invest in These Weaves? 🤔🤔 By purchasing Inaul Binalodan, you're not just acquiring a piece of cloth— you're supporting a living heritage that has been passed down through generations.
