You are welcome!

I guess the floating effect had been increased on the images because of my breathtaking photography!!!!

Thank you very much for sharing. For many of us, it is nice to see images from museums we may never have a chance to visit. Many beautiful objects have been presented. What is the story with the first keris pictured, with the war scene on the blade?

That was exactly the reason for me to share the images here.

I'm glad you appreciate my posting!

Kind Regards,

Default Thank you Maurice

I too would like to thank you Maurice, the images you have provided add a great depth to styles and design elements not often seen.

Yes thanks for the pics - nice pieces. Although I would argue about the keris - looks more like bronze rather than copper.
