Soga naturally dyed scarf/shawl from Tuban regency, Java.
Naturally dyed cotton scarf, delicately colored with Soga dye. I bought this from a lovely Javanese man who proudly explained to me how he had naturally dyed this himself with Soga.
Can be worn as a scarf, shawl or wrap. Lovely, fine, soft, drapey cotton with a tight weave.
Soga jambal is widely used in the Javanese batik industry, soga jambal is obtained from the bark of the soga jambal tree or yellow flamboyant. The word soga has become a general term used by the Javanese community for various types of coloured wood, such as Javanese soga (Caesalpinia sappan), soga tegeran (Cudrania javanensis), and Tingi soga (Ceriops candolleana). Soga jambal produces a variety of colours from warm yellow to dark brown.
I have 1 scarf like this available.
Shipping early August (I’m still in Indonesia).
