That was incredible - such labor intensity most of us have never known.

That was so cool Thanks for sharing!

Just amazing the time and work that goes into each piece. Priceless.

Thanks so much for sharing. I really enjoyed the video. It's no wonder batiks are so expensive. I'm sure they aren't paid much for all their labor.

Thanks for the link. I had no idea how it was made. Makes me appreciate them just that much more! Such a primitive set up and method but I think it would be difficult to make these fabrics using modern methods.

Amazing process! Thanks for sharing!

Thank you for sharing the video really enjoyed watching it.

Thanks for sharing!

Thanks for sharing. It's very interesting.

WOW!!
that's amazing

That was intense. Kinda makes me feel bad to pay 6 dollars a yard!

For what is charged for for batiks .....I'll bet these poor people get pennies for all the hard work. Sad .

Very interesting, but also depressing. I worry about them being exposed to that dye- can it be healthy to get in on their skin all the time like that, and climb into the vats?

I also noticed that the dyeing was all done by men- the first woman we saw was at the folding stage. I wonder why that is?

Anyhow, it is excellent to know how it is made. I knew the traditional methods used wax but I was assuming that the Moda stuff was some sort of photographic reproduction.

Wow! I didn't realize how labor intensive making batik fabrics is. Thanks for sharing.

thank you for sharing this great video...it is very enlightening....I may be going back to Bali (for the 10th visit :o) at Christmas and will have to go and see for myself.

So interesting and amazing, i love the diversity of batiks
