REMARKS COMPILED IN 1987 BY ROY HAMILTON ON BASIS OF EXISTING RECORDS, EXAMINATION OF OBJECT, AND REVIEW OF THE LITERATURE: Batik sarong still sewn into the tube shape in which it was worn. The style of this cloth is typical of the batik made in Pekalongan on the North Coast of Java, with its pastel hues, floral and butterfly pattern, and floral "kepala" [="head"] of a contrasting color. "Tulis" or hand drawn batik. This cloth bears the signature: "Oey Mbo(?) Tjoe / Kedungwuni." This signature indicates the proprietress and location of the workshop in which the cloth was made. The Chinese name is typical of the Pekalongan industry, where batiks were made and used primarily by Eurasian and Chinese women. Chinese batik makers began signing their batik after the turn of the 20th Century, a practice they adopted from the Eurasian batik makers. What appears to read "Kedungwuni" must certainly refer to the village of Kedungwungi on the outskirts of Pekalongan, which is famous as a center of production of very high quality batik. Batik signatures are discussed in Elliott 1984:128-129.
