Ethnographic Arms & Armour - View Single Post - what type of sarung/scabbard fits this keris?

I just got this keris Sumatera(?). It does not have a sarung/scabbard.
I can get the sarung done here -especially the peninsula malay type- but not sure exactly what type of sarung is appropriate to this keris. Would it be palembang style? bugis? etc.

Would appreciate suggestions and pics of appropriate scabbard.

Another Q. the tone and color of pendokok looks like gold and not kuningan or copper, but I have no way of verifying this. Can any of you give your opinion?
