About this book
The story
Wax, dye and patience: batik is one of the great textile traditions of the world, and Java is where it reached its fullest expression. Inger McCabe Elliott's pictorial study turns its attention to this cloth, presenting the patterns and pieces of the island's batik through generous illustration.
For textile lovers, designers and travellers drawn to Indonesia, it is a handsome book to linger over and return to.
