This is our specialism. We were the first people in Thailand to produce the traditional art of batik painting, normally associated with exotic fabrics, on mulberry paper.
Wax is melted down. Using special batik tools called djantings or batik brushes, wax is then delicately applied in various designs on the sa paper.
When the wax is dried, the inlaid designs are then painted with various colours. The wax acts as a divide to control the flow of dye.
The painted paper is hung up to dry. When dry the wax is removed leaving just the painted paper.
This batik paper is then used as a covering for various gift boxes and stationery items which have been constructed out of cardboard paper.
