Default Barong with pearls by Lubian

Hi everyone,

I have another barong from the shop of Manong Jimmy Lubian. This one is an early restoration work (mid-1970s) An old blade that was given a then evolving restoration work.

Features:

- Thick and heavy laminated blade. 17 inches long blade. 23 inches overall.
- 14 pieces cultured pearls on the scabbard.
- MOP on the scabbard's mouth with an early Lubian design ukkil.
- MOP on the toe of the scabbard with similar ukkil.
- Banati hilt with thin stainless steel wire wrap and alloy ferrule.

Asking price is $200 plus $36 shipping. Buyer shoulders Xoom fee.
