REMARKS COMPILED IN 1987 BY ROY HAMILTON ON BASIS OF EXISTING RECORDS, EXAMINATION OF OBJECT, AND REVIEW OF THE LITERATURE: Length of cloth decorated with the batik technique; one edge is the original selvage but the other has been hemmed by hand with individual knots. This cloth was attributed to Bali(?) in the original accession material. Although the Balinese used a great deal of imported batik cloth from Java, the technique was never widely adopted on Bali and is rarely mentioned in the literature on Balinese textiles. However, one reference by Covarrubias seems particularly pertinent to this cloth: "I have found strange batiks in a rough hand-woven cotton of a non-Javanese style, but I could never discover proof that they were made in Bali" [1937:198]. This cloth exactly fits this discription.
