I like also fake kendit kendit. Sometimes they are really well made. Here an example of a Yogya unknown wood sarong with kendit (i think painted)

Hello Marco,

first off all, great pictures, like usual from you! To my eyes this kendit don't look painted, why do you think it's painted?

Regards,

Thanks Detlef
I suppose is painted because:
- the grains/patterns of wood don't change where there is kendit
- there are also something like little color's smears out the borders of kendit
- inside the hole of sarong i don't see a kendit's trace
