About Batik

Batik, a traditional art from Java, uses a wax-resist dyeing technique. This technique has been practised for centuries. The word batik comes from the Javanese amba ("to write") and titik ("dots or points"), reflecting its detailed craftsmanship.

Batik tulis is the oldest form of batik making, where the wax is written or drawn (tulis) onto a length of fabric. Inspired by this timeless technique, we’ve applied the same intricate process to the wood surface of our mancala board games.

The batik-making process involves three key stages:
- Mencanting – Wax is applied using a canting tool to create intricate patterns.
- Mewarna – The fabric is dyed, with waxed areas resisting color
- Finishing – The fabric is dried and soaked in a fixing agent to preserve the colors.
