beautiful but full of mothball stench when washed”

i would give this 5 stars if there had not been a chemical used in bug prevention, apparently. i always wash before wearing and it took a day of various soakings (borax and vinegar diluted of course) to get rid of the smell. (please dont use chemical treatments...there are plenty of natural bug repellents that would work). i am concerned about lingering residue. otherwise, the colors are subtle and softly rich.

Well received by a batik expert”

My wife started collecting batik when we lived in Jakarta. The collection is now quite large and she has given lectures on batik - to Indonesians, among others. She was thrilled by the scarf - wonderfully executed.
