Batik print sarees invoke a certain kind of nostalgic paradise with it. Branded as one of the oldest form of printing, it has undergone a massive makeover with newer designs doing the rounds. An act that requires very simple tools, printing nevertheless requires great precision. It is technique of wax resisting dye applied to the designs which are drawn on the fabric. The applied wax resists dyes and therefore allows the artisans to colour selectively by soaking the cloth in one or multiple colours. The wax is later removed by boiling water. Its a traditional workmanship which has now crossed the boundaries of age old craft to be vouched as one of the most sought after designs.
