Working with ancestral textile craft techniques, Yuni Kristina depicts Java's trumtum motif. It covers a blue silk scarf, stamped by hand and embellished with batik. A symbol of awakening love, it refers to a queen who felt neglected when the king took a mistress. She took up batik, creating stars in the dark sky, stars that became her friends. The king was so impressed with her batik that he rediscovered his great love for his wife.

Blue jasmine blossoms take shape as an expression of Java's parang kembang kotak motif. By Yuni Kristina, this elegant scarf is crafted of shimmering silk. She hand-stamps the blue patterns on the ivory textile and adds red and black designs in batik.

Whether draped around your neck, styled as a head wrap or elegantly worn as a shawl, this versatile rayon scarf by Java’s Erna Gendhis is a great addition to complement your looks in any season. It is adorned with intricate hand-drawn batik motifs in a bright palette of sea green, crimson, orange, yellow, black and white hues that dance across the fabric, creating a feast for the eyes. The fabulous fringe accents on both ends add a touch of playful elegance to this unique design.

Presented as part of Melati's Collection in Bali, this wonderful silk scarf is named Singa, after an Indonesian mythological creature of protection. Against a body of laurel, a colourful floral garden is applied using the batik method, where a wax resist is stamped onto the fabric before it is submerged in colourful dye. This accessory arrives with a wood box accented with linen and suede.

For wrinkles, the artisan recommends ironing the scarf at a low temperature without water.
