A beautiful batik sarong from Pekalongan in Java. Tulis is the Indonesian word used to describe a batik that is totally handmade by "kanting" (pouring) the wax onto the material. It is not made by stamp or by mechanically printing onto the material. This is the traditional and most labour intensive way of making a batik.
Pekalongan is a famous batik centre on the north coast of Java where the Chinese first introduced synthetic dyes and floral motifs. This batik has a beige background and a multicoloured pattern of flowers and butterflies. It is on good soft cotton and in good condition but has two holes (see images). It is in good condition on soft cotton, but does have one very small hole (see photos).
