Small Keris with interesting handle
This Keris was interesting to me because of the handle material. It looks like Agate which doesn’t seem to common in Keris hilts. I understand these small pieces to be amulets or even talismanic in nature. Is that correct? Blade seems shaped like a Wayang figure, at least an abstract one and has some etched inscriptions done in a circle that might have some meaning. Thanks for having a look and sharing comments or thoughts.
