Unknown Maker, Indonesian

Batiks by Indo-Chinese makers are stylistically almost indistiguishible from those by Indo-European makers, as both groups primarily catered to the international community instead of the Indonesian market.

Most workshops specializing in indische batiks were located along the north coast of Java, concentrated in the port city of Pekalongan. In Pekalongan, Chinese and Indo-European batik workshops existed alongside Arab batik-trading operations. Most indische batiks flowed out of Java from Pekalongan, purchased by Dutch nationals or international tourists such as Lucy Truman Aldrich.
