  11. Batik Tulis (write) • Resist Dyeing Technique • Tjanting (canting) used with wax • Is produced by women • Cotton or silk fibres used • Batik wax is a mix of beeswax and paraffin, Beeswax is soft, pliable, and blocks completely, no cracking. Paraffin is more brittle, and lets dye penetrate wherever cracks form.

  12. Cap • Creating batik is a very time consuming craft so in 19th century the cap. (copper stamp - pronounced chop) was developed. This invention enabled a higher volume of batik production • Men usually used the cap • Each cap is a copper block that makes up a design unit.

  13. Batik designs There is two main kind of batik designs: geometric and free form. • Kawung is a very old design consisting of intersecting circles, known in Java Ceplok is a general name for a whole series of geometric designs based on squares, rhombs, circles, stars, etc. Although fundamentally geometric, ceplok can also represent abstractions and stylisation of flowers, buds, seeds and even animals. Parang was once used exclusively by the royal courts of Central Java. The Hindus introduced the sacred bird - Garuda, the sacred flower - lotus, the dragon - Naga and the tree of life. Islam, since it forbids the depiction of humans or animals, brought stylized and modified ornaments as symbols, i.e., flowers and geometric designs.

  15. Weft Ikat weaving- weft threads are dyed to create the design and then woven with plain warp threads. These cloths are recognisable by their abstract designs and bright colours. Ikat cotton threads Geringsing, or double-ikat weaving is the most sought after. This is when both the warp and weft threads are dyed to their final designs before being woven together

The colour was from the leaves of the Indigo plant. • In traditional batik, the second colour applied was a brown colour called soga. The colour could range from light yellow to a dark brown. The dye came from the bark of the Soga tree. • Another colour that was traditionally used was a dark red colour called mengkuda. This dye was created from the leaves of the Morinda Citrifolia. Men usually did the dyeing process, and dances or ceremonies were performed to ensure a successful result.
