Batik and other pattern dyeing

by Walter Davis Baker; Ida Strawn Baker

END PAPERS

The decoration of the [end papers] in this book is taken from the design of a very fine old sarong. The material is cotton. It has the quality and texture of the rarest batiks. The dyeing is vegetable indigo. Some of the units were perhaps applied with a tjap, but much of the waxing was done with single and double spouted tjantings. The ground color is a soft gray yellow.
