Caribelle Batik
Wingfield Estate, which is the home of Caribelle Batik today, is the place to visit in St. Kitts which keenly rivals Brimstone Hill in beauty and perhaps history. It’s a wonderful compliment for a visit to St. Kitts. Little did the very first owner – John Jefferson know, that today, thousands upon thousands of visitors to these shores would seek out Wingfield Estate early. Again, if you are a nature lover, you’ll soak up the 350 year old saman tree there, and the unique vegetation that lines the road close to the great house. You’ll be absorbed inside by the wonderful works you’ll experience. You’ll be transfixed. The Caribbean weather can be warm at times and no place like Caribelle Batik at Wingfield Estate provides for that. They use the best sea island cotton to make summer friendly clothing for men and women and even children. There are beach wear, maps and the works. To make you more comfortable, they even offer a tour of the plant at Wingfield and demonstrate how they apply all the batik skills. St. Kitts is really the home of batik and you shouldn’t go home without some. They’ll fascinate you by their demonstration.
