KOMPAS.com - Stipulation of batik as a cultural heritage objects not by UNESCO, and warning each dated October 2, should make us more understanding of what is called batik. Taken as the cultural heritage is a process membatiknya, not fabric with batik motifs that are often perceived as ordinary people. Batik batik process will produce the type of writing, which cost many times more than that through the process of batik stamp or printing. Why did the price a piece of batik cloth can reach millions to tens of millions of dollars?
Just imagine, a piece of cloth the size of 2.5 m which features a work of batik, it takes time making up to three months. The process of making clear that so long requires patience, precision, and high taste. However, the value will increase when batik batik batik capable of producing high levels of difficulty.
"The value depends on the unique selling cloth, batikan, and color. If the design is rare, and inimitable, that will determine the price," said Nur Cahyo, owner of House Batik Cahyo, while accompanying journalists witnessed various stages of manufacture of batik in his workshop Village Setono, Pekalongan, on Thursday (16/12/2010).
Batik-making process also involves a lot of people with the expertise of each. From an early stage, namely that the pattern maker to make batik design (molani), batik patterns, which move upwards fabric, and painted it using canting, and closed the parts that are not colored with candle (night), coloring, nglorod (rinsing process or shed a layer of night), to wash and then leave them until ready to use.
One who mastered the manufacture of batik certainly capable of doing all these stages. Including, dos & Don'ts of doing each step.
Cahyo, for example, already 15 years he devoted all his life to continue his father's batik business. Cahyo capable of processing batik designs, creating the colors produced from natural materials such as wood high, cup, mahogany, jambal, tegeran, or jelawe. He was the one who acted in a composition that fits between the wooden one with the other wood, to create a color he wanted.
Cahyo is one example of the batik on the quality, the pursuit of perfection up to the maximum extent possible. "I was once offered to leave my man-made batik (Cahyo mention the large outlet of cultural products in a shopping center in Jakarta, RED), but I refused. Therefore, I was basically batik," he said.
Cahyo pursuit of inner satisfaction by producing high-quality batik. A piece of batik cloth that his size is 2.5 m of cotton can be appreciated up to $ 3 million. While silk batik of material value could reach Rp 15 million.
Cahyo not deny, he still takes advantage of faster time to provide a living for an 50-batik who become employees, as well as batik-making for operational costs. Therefore, Cahyo also produce batik as a second line with the brand Norma, the faster the process.
"Batik is more affordable price, using a chemical dye. Not all of batik cap, there is also a write," he explained. Batik which is more affordable price is generally use cotton.
Many things can hinder a piece of batik work, and requires repeat batik making from scratch. For example, painting with wax candles bleed due to an improper fluid viscosity. Or, a failure during the coloring process. If you have this, batik certainly suffered losses such as loss of sheets of fabric made from silk that reached millions.
"It often happens, and we inevitably have to accept it. You have to pay for the failure to enjoy the whole process. Enjoy the process, enjoy the moment. We're not going to be a batik of a reliable, if not through the process of that failure," said designer Edward Hutabarat , in equal opportunities.
Beyond the technical matters, there are social constraints that hinder the process of making batik. Many pembatiknya are married, have children, and decided to stop working. "Whereas the regeneration it should continue. Finally I had to find batik again, whether from family or friends," said Cahyo.
