In the process of Batik, the waxed fabric is then dyed in the required colour, where the wax acts as a resist and the dye does not penetrate the waxed areas. The dye bath is usually hot and a lot of care has to be taken so that it doesn’t melt the wax. Later, to remove the wax from the fabric, it is dipped in very hot water. Then the fabric is left to dry. #batikprinting #process #indianbatik #batiktechnique #handicrafts #resistdyeing #blockprinting https://www.instagram.com/p/B94AV6-pVFN/?igshid=1pxuezpkkf9ls
The Bunta, wooden blocks are used for printing in the process of Batik printing. These wooden blocks are carefully hand carved by skilled artisans with handles to hold and 2-3 holes for air circulation during printing. The fabric to be printed is washed and dried, and then is stretched onto the printing table. The process of Batik block printing starts with melting the wax and then blocks being dipped in it and then stamped on the fabric in the desired pattern. This fabric is then dyed in the required colour, where the wax acts as a resist and the dye does not penetrate the waxed areas. #batik #indianbatik #batiktechnique #resistdyeing #wax #blockprinting #woodenblocks https://www.instagram.com/p/B938Y47JHSJ/?igshid=57nw4vttlkrp

We love batik! Batik (pronounced ba-teek) is an ancient wax-resist fabric art that has been practiced since the 4th century BC. Hot batik wax is hand painted with a spouted tool called a canting or stamped with a brass stamp called a tjap onto fabric, which is then dyed. After one or more dyeings, the batik wax is removed, revealing different colored patterns. Cracks in the batik wax give patterns the "crackled" look so unique to batik.
Batik is traditionally made in Indonesia, Malaysia, India, Sri Lanka, China and parts of Africa. We have a nice collection of batik scarves, pillows, handbags, and children’s clothing made by fair trade artisans around the world.
Our Indian Batiks are handmade by a cooperative of artisans called IFFAD in Chennai, India. Nearly 500 artisans practice the batik tradition in the region across several villages. Most of them are marginalized women who work to support their families. These handmade fabrics are made using a free-hand drawing with wax. IFFAD and Handmade Expressions, a member of the Fair Trade Federation assist in product development and marketing. Learn more about IFFAD here.
The Ghana Batiks are handmade by Global Mamas, a network of 627 artisans in Ghana, who create fair trade hand batiked clothing and accessories. The fair trade company transforms the lives of these women by creating sustainable income opportunities which lead to financial independence.
