There is at present a good exhibition of Keris in Malaysia

Keris:Power and Identity
From the collection of HRH Sultan Sharafuddin Idris Shah al Haj and Islamic Art Museum of Malaysia
2 December 22 - 13 March 2023.

The exhibition is accompanied by a good hard cover catalogue, the best keris book that came out of Malaysia that I've seen so far. Probably you can order this book from the museum (info attached in the pics).

One criticism that I have is that I wish they include a chapter on the history and background of the Sultan's collection .

If any of you are in Malaysia around this time, it is highly recommended to pay a visit.

Note: This is my personal view and I'm not involved in any way with this exhibition.
