This exquisite rayon batik robe by Desak Nyoman Parwati envelops the wearer in a languid Balinese danau ("lake") of swirling blue. As beautiful as it is comfortable, its flattering front-wrap style, wide sleeves and matching belt make this rayon robe a summer favorite.
This handpainted batik robe is a truly original work of art. Sunlight, water, dye and temperature all factor into the look of the finished robe. This should be considered a unique design made especially for you. Colors and pattern placement will vary.
