For this type of batik, the parang (dagger) pattern is combined with nitik, produced by using a square-edged canting, thus creating an e ect that looks like tenun (weaving).

For this design, the kawung pattern acts as the background, and the main decorative motifs are the peksi piningit (bird) and eight star pattern, which symbolize the Yogyakarta Court.

Sawat (tail and wing) and lar (main wing) represent the Garuda, an animal from ancient Hindu mythology. this type of decor was exclusively used for the king and the royal family.
