About

Indonesian batik, a textile art that marries intricate designs with vibrant colors, has a rich history dating back over a millennium. The word "batik" is derived from the Javanese words "amba," meaning to write, and "titik," meaning dot or point. This technique involves applying wax to fabric to create intricate patterns, which are then dyed to reveal stunning designs. In 2009, UNESCO recognized Indonesian batik as a Masterpiece of Oral and Intangible Heritage of Humanity, highlighting its significance as a cultural treasure. Today, batik remains a cherished art form, not only for its aesthetic beauty but also for its role in connecting generations, preserving stories, and showcasing Indonesia's diverse cultural tapestry. Batik is a high value handcrafted artwork, therefore its considered as a niche product for high class. Over time, the product developed along with garment industry technology, so now batik is available for everyone.
