Abstract
Colour variations are needed to support the textile industry development to increase product attractiveness. Textile dyes can come from natural and synthetic materials. Natural dyes can be the best solution to replace synthetic which is harmful to the environment. One of the natural dyes is a secang plant. This study aims to determine the absorption of silk fabrics on the secang wood colour using fixator. The research procedure consisted of a literature review, observation, data verification, experimentation and processing using descriptive statistical analysis. The results showed that the ability to absorb silk fabric against the secang wood colour using fixators produced a very sharp and bright colour and very flat on the fabric surface. The alum fixator produces a Dark Red colour, quicklime fixator is Maroon which is included in hot colours on colour circle, while tunjung fixator is Black from other colour clumps.
