Bulky bracelet jewellery: inspired by Malaysian batik / Nik Syuhaila Nik Ahmad

Malaysian Batik is batik textile art in Malaysia es­pecially on the east coast of Malaysia. (Kelantan, Terengganu and Pahang). The most popular motifs are leaves and flowers. Malaysian batik depicting humans or animals are rare because Islam norms forbid animal images as decorations. However, the butterfly theme is a common exception. Malaysian batik is also famous for its geometrical designs, such as spirals. The method of Malaysian batik making is also quite different from those Indone­sian Javanese batik, the pattern is larger and sim­pler, it seldom or nerve uses canting to create in­tricate patterns and relies heavily on brush paint­ing method to apply colours on fabrics. The colours also tend to lighter and more vibrant than the deep coloured Javanese Batik.
