This very fine old batik is a unique piece, crafted from two sewn-together cloths, measuring approximately 40 inches x 41 inches (102 cm x 104 cm). Unfortunately, it's in poor condition with various holes, some of significant size, caused by an acidic mordant damaging the fabric. Due to its delicate state, it requires careful handling to prevent further damage. The batik work, though finely detailed, differs from typical batik styles and appears more tribal in nature. The colors, originally shades of chestnut brown, are challenging to replicate accurately. The detail images in the gallery provide a closer look at small sections of the cloth, offering insight into its intricate design.
