Blue jasmine blossoms take shape as an expression of Java's parang kembang kotak motif. By Yuni Kristina, this elegant scarf is crafted of shimmering silk. She hand-stamps the blue patterns on the ivory textile and adds red and black designs in batik.
Yuni uses traditional batik processes such as canting and stamping to create her unique designs. These techniques have been handed down for generations and are among the characteristics that distinguish the art of batik. The importance of this traditional Indonesian art was acknowledge with the 2009 inclusion of Indonesian Batik on the Unesco Representative List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity.
Since joining Novica, Yuni has seen steady growth in her workshop. She now provides work to other batik artisans to help produce her range of scarves and shawls.
Yuni has seen continuous growth in her textile project. She is now able to give jobs other batik artisans in her community.
The Women's Empowerment badge is awarded to female artisans or artisan groups that are led by women.
Yuni is proud to be able to educate her children and wants them to have a great future.
Yuni has three young children and provides for their care.
The colors are beautiful, and the soft feel of the silk is so nice?

Our 12th wedding anniversary -- pearls and siilk. This was perfect and looks beautiful on my wife. Thank you for such an elegant and graceful creation.

Wonderful workmanship. The colors are exactly like in the picture. Some scarves are too long, and this one drapes just right for me (I am 5 feet 4). It is also light enough so that it can be worn on a summer evening in an air conditioned place. The batik brings back happy memories of Indonesia, where I grew up. Terima kasih, Yuni Kristina!

"My mother is my inspiration. She and I still design together, especially the floral and bird motifs that are typical in Pekalongan batik.”
