Well, I will post bigger pictures, but you can understand that I do not like to expose all my errors !!
Most of the pieces in the panoply have a history, as I forge and made the sheath of the rencong Aceh on the left, the sarong of the small kris in the upper left (you can see the angle is not correct) we talked already of the kris patrem in the center, but below is a kris panjang that was broken, but Nick Rashidin Nik Hussein (Kota Baru) thought that the kris was worth a sarong and a handle and he carved it for me. The badig in the lower right is a beauty.
The grandmother of my wife was sitting in the middle of this big frame on a photo, sometime in the 1920 and I had to restore the frame before organizing the panoply.
I will be coming back but not tonight anymore !
