SARONG


Pekalongan, Java

Late 19th-early 20th century :

Textile

Collection of Asian Civilisations Museum

1997-04174

Gift of Mr and Mrs Andy Ng

This sarong would have been worn by a nyonya (Peranakan woman) under a kebaya. The decoration features large floral bouquets with butterflies and birds. Nyonya-style sarongs are known for their bright and colourful designs, in shades of orange, yellow, pink and mauve, made possibly by chemical dyes imported from Europe in the 19th Century.
