For instance how would you appraise the pamor pattern of the 2 Bugis blades attached? According to the reference book the pamor pattern of the first blade is Tebba Bunga (equivalent to Lar Gangsir in Java).

greetings, the kris you show has a pamor which here we call it la kurissi daung kaluku (coconut leaves) interspersed with the pamor of Java people call it adeg while in bugis call it daung ase (rice leaf), while the second keris we call pamornya is wunga ase (rice flower) , kris kris you are very beautiful, I am sometimes stunned to remember the keris of friends outside the country is a very rare bugis keris, I hope there will be a bugis keris exhibition especially in europe, especially dutch

Best regrads
Lp
