THE USE OF BATIK CLOTH



Jarik is batik cloth which has various motives. Long time ago, nyamping or jarik that was used was usually in the form of painted batik, but this time it seems that printed batik is often used as well.
The use of batik motive, in fact has some differences between old time and present time. In the old time, there were some strict rules about batik motives that could be worn by someone.
The determination was based on:
a. The royal descent
b. The position
c. The opportunity
But at this time, the determination hasn’t been known anymore, so there is a freedom in using the batik motives. The determination based on the three things above will be discussed one by one, yet in one meaning, that the term was valid in the old time or if it is for the present time, it is only valid in certain places only.
