Takeaways

  • πŸ˜€ Batik is derived from the Javanese word 'ambik,' meaning to write in dots.
  • πŸ˜€ The technique of batik writing is believed to have originated during the Majapahit era in the 13th century.
  • πŸ˜€ Some historians speculate that batik existed even earlier, possibly during the ancient Mataram period.
  • πŸ˜€ Batik tulis or canting refers to the method of applying wax on fabric using a tool called 'canting'.
  • πŸ˜€ The canting tool is used to apply liquid wax ('malam') onto the fabric, typically a plain cotton fabric called mori.
  • πŸ˜€ The process of creating batik tulis starts with drawing a pattern on the fabric as the first step.
  • πŸ˜€ After the pattern is drawn, the next step is to use canting to apply the wax to the fabric following the drawn design.
  • πŸ˜€ The third step involves coloring the areas of the design that are exposed, covering the entire fabric with dye.
  • πŸ˜€ Once the fabric is dyed, it undergoes a drying process before moving to the next step.
  • πŸ˜€ The fabric is then boiled or dipped into hot water to remove any leftover wax, a crucial step in the batik process.
  • πŸ˜€ To lock in the color and prevent it from fading, the fabric is submerged in a solution of hydrochloric acid (HCl) and nitric acid.
  • πŸ˜€ The final steps include washing the fabric and leaving it to dry completely before it’s ready.
