Indonesian Batik technique

Designated as a UNESCO Intangible Cultural Heritage since 2009, Batik has become more popular in the world as an art and part of an ancient tradition in Indonesia. To make a batik, the artisans draw or print the patterns with a copper stamp called a cap, cover them with hot wax, then dye. The process of waxing and dyeing is repeated for multiple colors and elaborate designs. This technique of wax-resist dyeing is most highly developed in the island of Java with diverse patterns and high quality of workmanship. If you have a vacation in Java, don’t forget to bring back home some authentic batik.
