The cloth is first washed, soaked and beaten with a large mallet. We draw patterns with a pencil that is later carved into their shape in wood or in a sponge. They are then dipped in hot wax, which functions as a dye-resist. The wax is applied using tools such as a sponge or wooden stamp. The artisan mixes dye just as a painter mixes paint to achieve the desired hue. After the cloth is dry, the resist is removed by boiling the cloth. No two pieces of textile will ever be exactly the same, each piece is a work of art, each piece is a painting. It takes 1-2 days to hand-batik fabric for an item such as a dress or a pair of pants. We employ anywhere from 1 - 20 artisans depending on the volume of textile production.; 100% Cotton, Machine WashableFIT TIPFits true to size.I never like paying full retail for anything and I would imagine neither do you.; So, I bring to you brand name quality merchandise that consists of store overstock, shelf pulls, and discontinued stock merchandise and offer you savings from 30 to 70% off retail.; Please note due to the nature of being shelf pulls some clothing can be wrinkled upon receiving, may or may not have warehouse dust.
