…Of course, Japanese kasuri, which developed remarkably from the mid-Edo period onwards, also has a rich content that can rival Indian and Indonesian kasuri in terms of the diversity of materials and techniques. Incidentally, the French word chiné and the English word clouds also mean kasuri, and they were actively produced in Europe from the mid-18th century.

The names "hihaku" in China and "chiné" in French (meaning spotted) used in Europe are also for the same reason. However, today the Malay word "ikat," meaning "to tie" or "to bind," is commonly used as a universal dyeing and weaving term. *Some of the terminology explanations that mention "chiné" are listed below.
