This thread stands out against the other colors, creating a shimmering effect. The motifs of the Songket are diverse; some will showcase a flower motif or chicken motif, each with a unique meaning. Woven items are created using cotton fabric, silver threads, nylon, and silk. The dyes are made from natural materials like betel vine lead, bark, turmeric, or tamarind. Weaving is by hand, and most locals spend their days creating. Anything from dresses, table covers, blankets, scarves, and cloth can be created.
