REMARKS BY RENS HERINGA (1995): Natural dyes, pre-1900. Lasem pattern but Cirebon color. This type of cloth was given to brides of Chinese descent. The cloth was worn over the shoulder with the household keys attached to one hanging corner. This marked the authority of the woman as the female head of the domestic sphere. The tiny repeated pin-prick motif is called coblosan and is said to represent rice plants, symbolizing fertility. In Lasem and the eastern part of the North Coast, the pin-pricks are made individually with a thorn. In Cirebon and the west, a metal tool with many needles makes many marks simultaneously. As this cloth is made with such as tool, that is further evidence that it is from Cirebon rather than Lasem.
