Selling treated hemp rope
Choosing the right rope for Shibari is a very personal matter. Each rigger has their favorite characteristics in terms of handling, and each bunny has their own in terms of width, softness and smell.
After using jute rope for years, but not being able to find a new supplier in the quality we wanted, in 2023 we have gone over to buy raw hemp rope and process them to the suppleness, softness and color that we ourselves want.
4 pcs. rope of up to 8.5 meters each cost a total of DKK 800,- incl. VAT. You can choose between 5mm and 6mm thickness.
The same number, length and thickness in colors cost a total of DKK 1.200,- incl. VAT.
Important: Our treated ropes must not be used for suspension lines. For that we recommend synthetic hemp lookalike ropes. Here we can sell 2 pcs. 10 meters of rope for DKK 150 incl. VAT. (This is basically the purchase price as we don't have to spend days treating the ropes.)
A good rope set to start with will consist of 4 hemp ropes + possibly 2 suspension if you have suspension as a goal. It is enough to make a simple side suspension.
My own set my first years consisted of 8 ropes + 2 suspension ropes. It is enough for most bindings/patterns.
(Today I have in my bag: 12 basic ropes in different colors of 8 to 8.5 meters, 3 slightly longer ones for special things, 3 shorter bits for when you just need a little extra rope, and 6 suspension lines.)
The ropes are treated and dyed when they are sold, so it may take a few days.
