IMO , it is a Javanese( or maybe Madurese) pedang with great European/ Dutch influence

Yup, congrats obtaining this really nice pedang - I believe this example is more likely to be worn by nobility!
I can't offer a perfect match; IMHO it fits well with the variants encountered on Jawa though (the last 2 with variant blade types, too):

Have a close look - might as well be ivory.
BTW, what are the chains made from?
