Because the production of Ica is mostly manual, it takes time and effort, so the price is not cheap. It is mainly used for the waist cloth of local traditional costumes, and can also be used as sarong, sheets, sheets and decorations.

The difference between them is that the former only needs to take care of one direction when spinning, while the latter needs to take care of both warp and weft directions, so it is more detailed and labor-intensive to conceive dyeing and pattern. It is common for a small piece of cloth to take two or three years or even decades, so the price will be as high as several hundred to several million rupiah.
