gorgeous shawls

Yuni Kristina replicates the legendary kawung batik pattern for this crimson shawl of silken textures. Dating back to the 13th century, the kawung features floral motifs in intersecting circles. The pattern was once exclusive to the royal court of the Sultan of Jogjakarta.

Evoking the stunning beauty of a floral garden, lovely feminine designs decorate this fantastic and luxurious silk shawl from Bali. Traditional motifs alongside florals in hues of pumpkin, orchid, and chestnut are applied using the batik method, where a wax resist is stamped onto the silk before it is submerged in colorful dye. Presented as part of Melati's Collection, this shawl arrives in a box with linen and suede accents.

For wrinkles, the artisan recommends ironing the scarf at a low temperature without water. Spray the fringe with water and gently brush it with a comb to remove wrinkles. Let it air dry.

The world bursts into bloom with the arrival of spring, enticing butterflies to fragrant flowers. Its enchantment is captured in mesmerizing batik motifs. From Melati's Collection, this extraordinary shawl is created of pure silk. The elegant wrap is beautifully presented in a custom made gift box.

Traditional batik hand stamping and updated classic Indonesian motifs come together in this stunning shawl designed by Yuni Kristina. The truntum motif is believed to have been designed by Kanjeng Ratu Kencana, the Queen of Kasutanan Surakarta. It inspired Yuni Kristina to create the star truntum, featured on this silk wrap in shades of moss and jade on an ochre background. While the traditional truntum is characterized by a flower and dot pattern, the star motif featured on this gorgeous shawl introduces a new batik shape that adds depth to the original design.

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.

Presented by Indonesian artisan Yuni Kristina, this gorgeous silk shawl is hand-stamped using the batik process. The wrap combines saffron, espresso, and cherry-colored traditional motifs on a paprika background. The truntum pattern dominates the shawl, symbolizing unconditional love. The kawung motif is thought to have been designed by the king of Mataram and represents universal good will.

Shimmering shades of blue and cream cover this elegant scarf. Yuni Kristina recreates the parang raja. One of many traditional batik motifs, it symbolizes the ancient Javanese kingdom in general. She stamps the blue patterns in pure silk and adds the red blossoms with the batik motif.
