This kain tenun, a traditional textile cherished in the Malay Archipelago since the 15th century, features the horizontal jalur motif, which has long been associated with East Coast Malaysia (Pahang, Kelantan, Terengganu). It is traditionally secured around the hip or waist by tying it into a knot or wrapping it multiple times.
