Very nice Mamat Lombok, I love warangka kendit sheats. Here is my only warangka with kendit, from North Java or Madura and a Bali sheat with an eye and balinese inscription.

I like also fake kendit kendit. Sometimes they are really well made. Here an example of a Yogya unknown wood sarong with kendit (i think painted)

Hello Marco,
first off all, great pictures, like usual from you! To my eyes this kendit don't look painted, why do you think it's painted? Regards, Detlef |

Thanks Detlef
I suppose is painted because: - the grains/patterns of wood don't change where there is kendit - there are also something like little color's smears out the borders of kendit - inside the hole of sarong i don't see a kendit's trace |

Another unusual kendit
I think that kendit is not painted but seems one black wood ring(with grains completely different) puts between two other cut-pieces of another light wood (timoho?) . IMO the rigour to insert the wood is Last edited by Marcokeris; 4th October 2009 at 03:46 PM. |

That's very interesting, Marco.
But why one need to attach such wood ring in between? If it was done in the sense of restoration, definitely they are going to find similarly-colored,if not similarly-grained wood ring, for that purpose, doesn't they? |
