Oh that's interesting. So that would have been around the Edo period, 1800s, when they opened Japan up a bit to foreign trade? It's interesting that Japan hadn't figured out a blue dye of their own. Do you know what is used to make Prussian blue that Japan didn't have, or hadn't figured out how to make?
