Come and experience the uniqueness of making Batik, from drawing your own design, to put some hot wax with Canting as a tool. Which then will be coloured by the practitioner and sent to your home by mail.
Batik is an ancient Indonesian art form made with wax-resist dyeing on fabric. It is a traditional method to place beautiful designs on fabric. It has been recognized by UNESCO in 2009 as Masterpiece of Oral and Intangible Heritage of Humanity from Indonesia. Since then, National Batik Day is celebrated annually on October 2nd. Nowadays, Indonesians would wear Batik in honor of this ancient tradition.
