What are batiks used for? Batik Strips and Squares free are a type of fabric often used in bedding. They are made by a “resist” process in which the designer uses wax to prevent the dye from penetrating some areas of the fabric, leaving those areas undyed. The process can be repeated many times to create complex designs using many colors.

Batik textiles feature ornate geometric patterns created by brushing or pouring hot wax onto undyed fabric. The fabric is then dyed, and the wax is removed with boiling water to reveal the patterns. This process can be repeated several times to create layered patterns with different colors.

The origin of Asian batik is believed to be a way of dyeing the fabric using wax to protect certain parts of the fabric so that those parts do not absorb the dye. The wax is used to create patterns on the fabric and is removed after the dyeing process. This can create a marbled or mottled effect on the fabric.

The History of Batik

Some of the earliest wax-resistant textiles can be traced back more than 1,500 years to Ancient Egypt, Sui and Tang Dynasty China, Nero Period Japan, and the Yoruba people in Nigeria and Senegal, among other cultures. But batik as we know it gained prominence in Indonesia, reaching its peak between the 19th and 20th centuries, when it was commonly used for clothing. During this heyday, traders brought batik textiles around the world, and they gained a global popularity that has continued to the present day.[et_bloom_inline optin_id=optin_5]
