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.

I love this scarf! The colors are vibrant and the attention to every detail is evident, even down to the little knots on the fringe. The silk is light weight but still gives warmth on a cool evening. It is wide enough to be worn as a shawl but not too bulky when folded for a scarf. Thank you, Yuni!

I always return to Novica when I visit my cousins in Italy. I want to not just give a gift but rather a very unique gift for them to keep in remembrance of our family. I always find gifts that were truely made from the heart that contains the energy of the special people who created the design. This scarf has everything I was looking for in the beautiful design and color. Very unique and special gift given from heart to the special people who will receive it. I also appreciated the cloth bags that they were packed in. I was able to examine the workmanship that was put into the scarf. Thank you Yuni!

"My mother is my inspiration. She and I still design together, especially the floral and bird motifs that are typical in Pekalongan batik.”
