This is a gift set of three items which include: our most popular hand-dyed and hand-stamped batik bandana in Leafy Paradise pattern; a handwoven pouch from natural material called Grey Sedge - a type of woody plant from swamp in Borneo that is handwoven by women Dayak tribe; and lastly a Batik Canting Wax & Dye tool that is used to hand draw our batiks.
About our batik bandana:
- Our bestseller hand-dyed batik Bandana in cream peach color with leaf pattern:
- Our batik bandana is made from tightly woven cotton fabric that feels more substantial than the flowy thinner bandana fabric.
- This bandana is made from white cotton fabric that is then hand-stamped and hand-dyed using 700 years old batik wax and dye technique. The batik fabric is also then sun baked. You should expect some variation of the color.
- This pattern is called Blade
- Size: 20”x20”
- Made with 100% cotton fabric
- Machine washable in cold and air dry. Wash batik separate from other garments.
About our handwoven Grey Sedge pouch:
- This is a handwoven all natural pouch made of Grey Sedge plant "Purun". This wild plant grows abundant in the peatlands in Borneo, Indonesia and is used by a group of women in Borneo to weave into pouch, bag and basket.
- Size: 11.8 x 7.8 x1.18 "
- The Dayak tribe in Borneo, Indonesia took the Purun plants from peat swamps around the village using a boat. The most difficult process is to pound the Purun until it becomes thin, before weaving them into pouches.
- Purun is organic and easily decomposes, so this pouch is eco-friendly, 100% natural and reusable beyond our gift set.
About our canting wax and dye tool:
- Canting is a traditional Javanese tool for applying wax in batik making.
- It consists of a small copper reservoir attached to a wood handle.
- The reservoir holds hot wax, which is then drawn onto fabric in intricate patterns, used to make our batik bandana or robes.
- Used in conjunction with dyes to create colorful designs.
