weekend snap shot: Indonesia traditional textile
•July 27, 2008 • 9 Comments
well, I have been posting landscape a lot, now I’ll post (a bit) about Indonesian traditional textile. Those textile are some of my collection.
Ok, here we go:
From top left to right
the purple fabric is called Ulos, originally from North Sumatra. People in North Sumatra will use this fabric on birth of someone, their wedding and their death.
The green fabric is called Batik, originally from Central Java, the motif that shown above called Mega Mendung because it is a cloud look alike.
The red-yellow stripe is Silk from South Celebes, I already made into a formal hem. This province is known for its variety of silk with the best quality.
The brownish fabric (top right) is called Sasirangan, originally from South Borneo. Centuries ago, people in South Borneo wore them for a magic ritual. Now you can made a nice dress with that 
The Bottom
All fabric on the bottom is called Songket, a- Malay origin. So, almost all the province in Sumatera Island and some in west Borneo has this kind of fabric including Malaysia. Each area also has a unique motif. The Songket above are from West Borneo, South Sumatra and Riau. The Riau Songket is a hand made. It took moths to finish a meter of hand made songket
the older the songket, the more expensive the price is.
