I recently acquired this wooden hilt together with a very old blade similar to those attributed to Banten or Blambangan and which I showed in another thread.
In relation with the horn hilt recently shown by Gustav and possibly dating from the 17th Century, I would like to get your opinions about this one:
It is 9 cm long and made from a quite light and clear color wood, and depicts a demon seated in Maharajalilasana/ Lalitasana position? It is holding a human arm in his left hand and according to Jensen it depicts a Siva Bhairava/ Raksasa eating corpses.
Jensen shows pictures of 3 similar hilts in Chapter 6 of his Krisdisk (one wooden piece and two from ivory) which are attributed to Blambangan (East Java) and dating from the 17th Century.
I have no clear clue for dating my hilt except that it has some patina and wear (the nose especially) and believe that it has age but not necessarily as old as the specimens shown by Jensen.
Your opinions will be appreciated.
Regards
