Motif & Batik Process
This butterflies motif symbolizes strength and resilience. This Chinese influenced motif originated from
the North Coast of Central Java island. See Batik Patterns & Motifs for more info.
Both canting (hand-drawn tool) and copper
stamp are used for applying malam (hot wax) to create the design on this cotton
scarf. The fabric is then hand dipped in dye for a few times to achieve the
color intended. The fabric covered by wax resist the dye. This process is
repeated for each color, then fabric is dipped in boiling water to remove the
wax and dried under the sunlight to bring out the vibrant color. The wax then
going through recycling process to be re-used. See Batik Art for more info.
