The batik fabrics from Malaysia are made by a social enterprise that has set itself the task of breaking the poverty cycle of women with families in the country. The fabrics are made in filigree handcraft from high-quality silk-cotton fabrics. Batik has been practiced in Southeast Asia for 2000 years. The complex dyeing process creates beautiful, sophisticated designs that are unique and represent the region they come from. The process uses colourfast wax to create elaborate patterns and designs. The wax is then washed off to reveal the tie-dye pattern, or the process is repeated to apply multiple colors.
