BATIK❗️- Indonesian local cloth! - JAKARTA vlog

Today I'm going to buy Indonesian local cloth that called: "BATIK"!

✅ Batik is a technique of wax-resist dyeing applied to the whole cloth.
This technique originated from the island of Java, Indonesia.
Batik is made either by drawing dots and lines of the resist with a spouted tool called a canting, or by printing the resist with a copper stamp called a cap.

The applied wax resists dyes and therefore allows the artisan to colour selectively by soaking the cloth in one colour, removing the wax with boiling water, and repeating if multiple colours are desired.

Batik is an ancient art form of Indonesia made with wax resistant dye on fabrics.

⬇️ Indonesian coastal batik (batik pesisir) made in the island of Java has a history of acculturation, a mixture of native and foreign cultures. It is a newer model compared to inland batik, and it uses more colors, though the patterns are a lot less intricate.
This is because inland batik used to be made by select experts living in palace areas, while coastal batik can be made by anyone.[9]

Batik is very important to Indonesians and many people wear it to formal or casual events. Batik is commonly used by Indonesians in various rituals, ceremonies, traditions, celebrations, and even in daily uses.
