Well, it was when we started a while ago, we , that means me and the Pamekasan creative teams, producing couple of batik that were fine in quality and can be bit pricey at the time. Looking at the quality now, it's good.
This one, the burgundy-maroon background batik ws from around 4 years ago. As we can see it was depicting bouquet, "buketan" they said in local dialect.
The key to understanding a piece of Pamekasan Batik is to look at the background. It always busy, just like "semarangan" did. It was and still believe that fine quality batik should be 'busy' at the background
By the way, if you see the background leaves, it contains 3 different color, white, yellow and red/burgundy. And you know from this fact that it took 3 times process of exposing one-third of leaves to chemical dye, while the latter was closed by some fine wax to prevent penetration of unwanted piece.
