I have two kris boards: the first and largest one looks measures 75 cm hight and 34 cm width. It is rather interesting in the fact that its back face was also sculptered but the artist stopped in the middle of its process and restarted on the other face.
The second one is much smaller 50cm by 27 cm
I think both are from Java, but I have no firm indication of it.
Can anyone comment on these boards and can anyone especially in Indonesia and Malaysia show some kris board of court level ?
Thanks, regards
