A Blangkon
is one of batik patterned headdress, with a unique design which was worn by men
as part of a traditional Javanese clothes. But from a few sources that I have
been telisik, not one who knows from where the origin of the Java man wearing a
headband called a Blangkon is.
Yet there is
another theory that is derived from the Elders say that in antiquity, headband
is not permanent like a turban is always fastened on the head. But with the
economic crisis caused by the war, Cain became one item that is hard to come
by. Therefore, the Royal officials asking artists to create the headband using half than usual for the efficiency of the
exercise of a permanent form of head covering with a cloth called blangkon more
efficient.
blangkon principally
woven iket square-shaped wooden or four squares. Its size is roughly as wide as
105 cm x 105 cm. Half actually
just used the cloth. Blangkon size is taken from the distance between the
latitudes of the right and left ears through the forehead and through the top. In
General most small numbered 48 and 59 most great.
A blangkon is composed of several types including: Using a mandolin, i.e. a bulge on the back of the blangkon shaped like and-onde. A blangkon is referred to as blangkon Yogyakarta style. This bulge marks the haircut guy time that often ties their long hair on the back of the head, so that section protruded in the back of the blangkon. Coils of hair that should be toned so not easy to lose.
Hopefully,
the information about the history of the origin of this knowledge can add
Blangkon Pal all. Let us love and both maintain what has become a tradition in
our nation, as a form of preserving the treasures of the archipelago are
multi-faceted and that no measure numbers.
