Vintage Copper Tumpal Batik Stamp

This copper batik stamp features the Tumpal motif, a traditional triangular pattern commonly used along the edges of coastal (pesisiran) batik from northern Java. Influenced by local, Dutch, and Chinese artistic traditions, the Tumpal design carries deep symbolism, often seen as a protective element against misfortune and a metaphor for spiritual harmony and balance between humans, nature, and the cosmos. A timeless motif for border and decorative accents.
