Liquid pressure transfer capable of applying a decorative pattern to a loop-like workpiece (W) with satisfactory reproducibility. The workpiece (W) is immersed in a transfer liquid (L) to be apparently cut crosswise by a surface of the transfer liquid (L) at a transfer initiating site (Z). Also, the workpiece (W) is substantially concurrently contacted on a circumference of a section thereof taken substantially in a thickness direction thereof with a transfer film (F) at the transfer initiating site (Z). The workpiece (W) is shifted at the transfer initiating site (Z) so as to be successively immersed in the transfer liquid (L) in a longitudinal direction of the workpiece (W) while an immersion attitude of the workpiece (W) is maintained. At least one of the workpiece (W) and transfer film (F) is transferred during the immersion. Thus, a portion of the transfer film (F) which has not yet been used for transfer printing is fed so as to surround the whole circumference of the section of the workpiece (W), to thereby ensure transfer of the transfer pattern (P) to the surface of the workpiece (W). <IMAGE> |
