Handcrafted Balinese Rayon Batik Robe in Red and Yellow, "Red Passion"
Silhouetted on cherry red, delicate yellow hibiscus flowers evoke thoughts of the tropics. They show the tonal variations of batik. Nyoman Nadri creates this graceful rayon robe with wide sleeves and a matching belt. In traditional kimono style, the robe features openings under the arms for adjusting the robe and for ease of movement.
Batik is a fabric art in which the cloth is stretched on a wooden frame and the design sketched with a pencil. Then a mixture of melted wax is painted by hand onto areas where color is not desired. When the fabric is crumpled into the dying solution, the wax cracks, creating an attractive network of fine lines. The wax is removed and the process is repeated for each color utilized. Finally, the cloth is washed and rinsed to remove any excess dye.
This handpainted batik robe is a truly original work of art. Sunlight, water, dye and temperature all factor into the look of the finished robe. This should be considered a unique design made especially for you. Colors and pattern placement will vary.

Beautiful fabric, beautiful colors, very well made. Just what I needed to match the weather: not too heavy, not too thin, just perfect. Thanks a lot

"Gorgeous piece"
This is an absolutely beautiful piece of clothing. It's hard to find an elegant robe, and I have been looking for quite a while. This one caught my eye and it is just as stunning in person as it is in the photos. It's graceful and sexy at the same time. Highly recommend!
