Indonesian blankbook (2)

Another Indonesian Blankbook. This blankbook was purchased from the same shop as the one featured here. Like its cousin, it is also printed in the same muted palate of brown, black and yellow. 

This pattern bears a resemblance to the parang , or sword motifs of traditional batik. These patterns typically symbolize victory. The paper on this blankbook bears a particular resemblance to the Parang barong, a pattern associated with Royalty.
