Bali Hilt ID???
Hi Folks! A good friend of mine just acquired this polychromed Balinese hilt for the price of a taco in, of all places, a Central Mexican marketplace. I do realize that togogan Bali hilts are often notoriously difficult at times to pin an actual character ID on, but i thought i would give this a go and see if anyone has any ideas. He is not one i am particularly familiar with, but there are a few clues, like his distinctive humpback and the particular mudra the right hand forms. Maybe even the chain slung off the shoulder is a clue as well as the choice of red and black colours. Who knows?
