Copper stamps (tjaps)

+44 (0)1588 638712

Tjaps (also spelled caps) are the beautiful copper stamps which are used to apply the whole design at one time. They can be used to apply wax to paper or silk as well as cotton.

All our tjaps are hand made in Java by craftsmen who still make them in the traditional way.

APOLOGIES THAT WE ARE SO LOW ON TJAPS AT THE MOMENT. We will try our best to bring some back from our next trip to Java in March 2019
