Batik robe 'Blue Anemone' by Desak Nyoman Parwati
This arrived on time and I love it. It came in a nice material draw string pouch that can be used for other things. There was a nice little envelope with a hand written note on a small colorful greeting card. I'm 5' 1" and it was not too long. Still a few inches for someone even shorter. The product is very professionally handmade and sewn. There is even pockets on either side - which is nice. There's a little loop inside on the back collar to hand the belt as no loops on the robe - perhaps to look nicer. I washed it right away in cold water with Woolite. No noticeable bleed of color...It's made of 100% Rayon. Care is on a little tag inside. It says to dry flat and you can iron it if want... but I just hung it wet and it didn't need ironing. Very happy with the purchase.
Birthday present for myself!
I decided to treat myself for my birthday with the Ocean Symphony Batik robe. It is truly a treat! The colors are as represented, a lovely ocean themed combination of aqua, royal blue and purple with some lighter shades. It's a joy to wear. The fabric is nice and solid, but not heavy, stiff, or flimsy like some batiks. The fit is fine and very comfortable. I am most impressed with the craftsmanship, though. Every seam is enclosed, including the pockets and front placket and shaping seams. This type of french seam will ensure that no fraying occurs. I plan to enjoy this lovely robe for a very long time. Many thanks to the artist who created this beautiful piece!
