Tiviers

Tiviers is an archaic or dialectal term, primarily found in the UK, referring to tools or equipment used for dyeing cloth or yarn. The precise definition can vary regionally, but generally includes implements like vats, dye baths, stirring sticks, and possibly even specific types of containers used to hold and mix dyes. The term is not commonly used in modern English, having been largely replaced by more specific terminology depending on the context of dyeing processes or by the general terms "dyeing equipment" or "dyeing tools." Records of the word’s use are more prevalent in historical texts relating to textile industries. Its origin is unclear but possibly related to older words referencing dyeing processes.
