Batik, a traditional textile printing and dyeing handicraft in China, was called wax valerian in ancient times. It was also called the four major printing processes in ancient China together with twisted valerian (tie dyeing), grey valerian (hollow printing) and clip dyeing. Batik is to draw flowers on the cloth with a wax knife dipped in melted wax, and then dipped in indigo. When the wax is removed, the surface of the cloth presents various patterns of white flowers on a blue background or blue flowers on a white background. At the same time, in the dip dyeing, the wax as a resist naturally cracks, which makes the cloth surface show a special "ice grain", which is particularly eye-catching. Because batik is rich in patterns, elegant in color and unique in style, it is simple, elegant, fresh and pleasing to the eye when used to make clothes and various practical articles for life.
