Patched silk shoulder cloth
Lokcan is a type of batiked silk, with decorative patterns similar to those of the north coast of Java. Mainly used in the Chinese community. The most common format is that of the selendang (shoulder cloth). From the late 19th century onwards, silk batiks became fashionable and different formats were produced.
