The exact inventor of Batik is unknown, though many sources claim batik hailed from Indonesia.
Italy, Sicilian of north side
It came from southern France, it is of Occitane origin(a latin language similar to french and catalan).
I would like to know that myself because I just acquired two beautiful original watercolors on batik by him/her ---- if it's the same artist, they sign their work with a lower case p. chan. They had a certificate of authentication that they were originals on the back with the name of the people running the auction where they were originally purchased. The company was called HANG-UPS: Fundraising Art Auctions and their address in in Orange, CA. I tried calling the phone number which was (714) 997-9999 with no luck. Sorry I couldn't be of more help.
The term "kaleidoscope" is derived from the Ancient Greek κάλος (beautiful), είδ(ς) (form or shape), and -σκόπιο (tool used for examination); hence, "observer of beautiful forms."

The batik of Indonesia is the most widely known.
so many... batik is differentiated by the location where it came from, some places in Indonesia that produce batik such as : Cirebon, Solo, Garut, Madura. All of those places are located in Java. So, for the batik produced in solo we called it batik Solo, etc. Each place has their own batik pattern as their signature, so just by looking at the pattern we can tell where the batik came from. Hope the info can help :)
