Batik Cotton Sarong authentic Fabric Handmade Indonesian Batik Kain Tulis from Pekalongan Indonesia Batik Hand Drawn

Traditional, genuine Batik sarong from Pekalongan in Indonesia made by hand with a Cap or Stem, an intricate large copper stamp used to repeatedly apply wax to the cloth. It is not made by mechanically printing onto the cotton. While this is quicker than hand painting the wax, it still takes great skill to align the blocks up exactly.

Pekalongan is a well known batik centre in Central Java. This sarong has a brown and white background with a floral and bird pattern in blue, purple, green, pink and brown. It is in good condition on good soft cotton.

A Sarong is made by taking a long piece of batik and authentic sewing the two short edges together to form a tube. Mostly made for use by women. This one is 104cm high by 184cm long (if opened up).

A superb example of Indonesian batik.
