We have had it from the 1952, Someone found it in a pepper case in the early 1900's. It's hilt is VEGETAL & WINGED HORSE
There is a dragon going up the blade, and birds ingraved on the sheath. It looks like Kasunanan Pakubuwono had it made for someone? So it could be from the central Java, Madura hosted Dutch garrisons? not sure? But I am looking for all and any info I can find or get.

So coments or info would be very helpful
