In the 19th century, red dye for clothing was primarily made using natural sources like cochineal insects, which produced a vibrant carmine dye, and madder root, which yielded a range of red shades. Cochineal was harvested from the cactus-dwelling insects in Central and South America, while madder was cultivated in Europe. Both sources required specific processing methods, including drying, grinding, and boiling to extract the dye. These dyes were then used in various textile dyeing techniques to color fabrics.
