However, when we hold these wrongkos in our hands and look at the topographic sculpting, and the cross sectional variation, even apart from variation in size, it is very obvious that we are looking at totally different wrongkos.
Alan, I agree absolutely.

Yet the same is true comparing between B.K. Pendok and a common Jogja Pendok. The shape, the size and the ornaments are different. The idea of a Pendok with Slorok worked in Krawangan style is the same.

It appears, this could be one of the rare cases, where Topengan seems to be integrated in Pendok/made at the same time.
