Back To Batik

The Chinese contributed to the batik design are most evident in the addition of more flower and bird motifs, border patterns, and incorporating the use of pinks, yellows, and blues. Dutch and Eurasian women have favored the use of European floral bouquets, birds, bees, trees and butterflies in their patterns, a trend that is one of the most popular in use today. All three cultures influenced the design and color combinations so heavily, that batik is often associated with their influential characteristics.

Batik prints are so common in our society today, that it's hard to imagine a life without their beauty. Batik prints are in our art, on our loveseats, and in our wardrobe. They're hanging over our bay windows, and adorning our walls with their elegance. Batik printing, patterns and designs have enriched many facets of an artistic heritage that encompasses many regions of the world.

A tradition that started on a small island 2,000 years ago has evolved into a world-renowned practice. Fashions and furnishings helped bring the beauty of this tradition to world wide prominence. Batik apparel was formerly the clothing of aristocracy; batik is now the art of the world.
