Description
Batik is a type of resist printing process in which wax is applied to the fabric in specific areas. When the wax hardens, the fabric is submerged in dye. The wax prevents the dye from reaching the fibres. The fabric is then boiled to remove the wax. This fabric-dyeing method makes cotton look crackled.

As these beautiful fabrics are hand printed there may be some loose dye on the surface of the fabric and some irregularities will occur as an inevitable and unique feature of the hand printing process.
Washing Instructions – Manufacturer says: We recommend hand washing separately in cold water taking extra care with dark colours. The dyes used include vegetable dyes and some fading may occur after washing. Please do not tumble or use bleach and use a cool iron on the reverse of the fabric for best results. We strongly recommend testing a small piece first to be sure.
