REMARKS COMPILED IN 1987 BY ROY HAMILTON ON BASIS OF EXISTING RECORDS, EXAMINATION OF OBJECT, AND REVIEW OF THE LITERATURE: "Tapis" or woman's sarong from Lampung Province, Sumatra. Consists of five panels sewn together, then sewn closed at the ends to form a tube. The center and end panels are decorated with couched metallic thread and appliqued pieces of mirror known as "cermuk". The two intermediate panels are decorated with silk embroidery and with "cermuk". A very similar "tapis" is illustrated in Gittinger 1979:83. "Tapis" are the characteristic sarongs for ceremonial attire among the various ethnic groups in Lampung. An illustration of their use can be found in Gittinger 1979:plate 40. The original accession information assigns this "tapis" to Lampung Bay, but this probably only refers generally to the Lampung region rather than to specific provenience around the shores of Lampung Bay proper. This "tapis" cannot be further assigned to a specific ethnic group without further information. The Kauer on the coast of Bengkulu Province are known for their dense "cermuk" work, but other groups used the "cermuk" technique to a lesser degree as well [Gittinger 1979:84]. See entry for X70.110 for background information on "tapis" sarongs from southern Sumatra.
