Story Behind the Art:
Batik is a fabric art in which 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.
Nyoman Nadri is an artisan of bed covers, pillowcases, sarongs, shawls, and many other textile arts. She started her career in embroidery in 1987, taking orders to make pillowcases and bags from 1989 until 1992. In 1995, she turned to batik when she learned it from a friend.

Like the other reviewers of this item, the colors don't match the photograph. The one I received is much darker, but nice enough for lounging at home. The fabric drapes well. Can't beat it for the price.
Okay, I had read the reviews about the change in colors so I thought I was prepared. I was not. The robe arrived in completely different colors, hunter green, mustard and navy blue. The predominent colors are the mustard and green. I'm so disappointed. Not the colors you associate with women batik styles. The colors are very masculine and don't give me a happy feeling. That said, the drape and weight of the material is very nice and it is well cut and generously proportioned. For that reason I'm keeping it but for the price I would have expected the robe to match better to the colors in the photo. I really need a robe, otherwise I would have returned it. Be forewarned! Can't someone update the photo?
I bought this robe, knowing from reading other reviews that the colors would be somewhat different from what you get. (Batiks are unique--you almost never can match the same dye lots as a former dye batch made.) The robe was BEAUTIFUL upon arrival. I immediately washed the robe in HOT water with an oxygen bleach. (I wanted to get the worst over with in regards to future washings.) I tumbled it dry in a medium setting dryer. The robe came out almost feeling like a light, light peachskin! The fabric didn't bunch or gather, it didn't stretch anywhere in the dryer--and it still overlaps everywhere to cover a 2x torso! The final main colors were an orange/yellow, and forest green. It is soft and drapes comfortably without a wrinkle or pucker anywhere!
I'd love to give this robe 5 stars because it's so soft, comfortable and elegant. I love the fit and the feel, but, like other reviewers have said, the color is way off. Instead of turquoise, blue and pale yellow, it's deep navy, dark green and orange. I'm really disappointed in the color but the robe is so lovely otherwise that I'm going to keep it. However, it's very oversized, which is great for me since I'm a 1X gal, but a petite person would swim in this.
Glad I was home as I had to sign for it from Fed-X. The robe is darker than pictured but I anticipated that from reading the former reviews. I have been looking for a unique-batik robe for years and until now I have had to settle for less. This robe is gorgeous and just the right weight. It's a Palm Beach look without the Palm Beach price!
