silk scarves

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.

Floral motifs evoke wine carnations that bloom on cool ecru silk. Peacocks fly amid the blossoms in a traditional Javanese design known as suwiri merak. Demonstrating her mastery of batik, Yuni Kristina creates a scarf of exquisite elegance.

Java’s nature blooms in the middle of a batik-embellished scarf by Yuni Kristina. Jade, crimson, and redwood hues spread their elegant tones around this silk garment, exquisitely made with a folk art-inspired pattern and fringes as lightweight as the scarf’s drape. To complete the illusion, a cotton blend gift box arrives with the 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.

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.
