The unique batik for brocade clothes of H'Mong ethnic group in the northern mountainous province of Yen Bai has been listed as a national intangible cultural heritage.
The technique using melted beewax in creating patterns on brocade clothes is a traditional craft of H'Mong people. To create decorative patterns on brocade, they heat beeswax and then use a pen dipped in melted wax to draw directly on the fabric. The waxy part when dyeing will not absorb the colour, creating dark and light tones on products.
