ORCHID BATIK

Inspired by the highly-admired Batik, an ancient technique and material that involve natural elements like beeswax, plant dyes, tools and heritage craftsmanship. This rhythmic Singapore Orchid Batik pattern celebrates not only the interplay of nature and human in the making of this fabric, but also the relaxed, tropical feel batik always evokes. The dotted expression here pays homage to the canting, an etching tool for holding a small reservoir of hot wax and used to create lines and fine dots. Beautiful textile designs emerge from this heritage though passion, dedication and creativity, the same spirit that cultivated Singapore into a vibrant, graceful and welcoming city with a finely crafted balance between natural and built habitat.
