Default dear jean

hello jean, how are you ,,
of course this is the old kris, a little explanation about the variant of the existing bugis keris, which we must know, the bugis forging system is slightly different from the Javanese kris, and the difficulty level is much harder than the Javanese kris according to the recognition of some masters in Java and Madura, pamor luwu derived from his own bugis land, (which was even in use by majapahit kingdom since the 14th century) according to the written from various ancient records that exist. even import of luwu pamor material for kris jawa, still last until 1900, with very high price. I hope there is a friend here can facilitate us to make an exhibition in europe specializing bugis heritage, so that the perception during this time about the bugis keris can change, we must know the influence of very big bugis keris, sumatra, kalimantan, melayu, lombok, bima, malaysia, singapura even filiphine,
best regrads
