Other Batik Websites

I found out many websites using Batik as main topic.

1. http://www.batikmalay.com/

> This website actually on batik sarongs (do not confuse with “batik canting”). Batik Sarong is a heritage garment which used generation by generation of women malays in the old days. Today, we can still found the norm in village and suburb area as a convenient garment to be used at home. Somehow, we can also see there is innovation to use it as attire such as “Baju Kurung”, “Baju Kebaya” (or relevants) for festival or ceremony. The trend is actually brought from Indonesia.


2. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Malaysian_batik

> This is wikipedia link for those who wants to know the definition of Malaysia Batik. Before indulge deeply with Batik, it is best if you study what is the meaning of Batik, technique and its uses.



3. http://www.pinganchorage.com.my/batik_gallery.htm

> This is another description given out on Batik. Definition of Batik by Ping Anchorage is “Printing Out With Wax” and “No Two Pieces Are Exactly Alike”. I agree on this! (that is why we cannot print out detailed catalogue because we have different designs every week!. We do not want our customers to feel the hassle to get new issue everytime we change our designs.)
