Thanks for the close ups.
As Detlef brought up it's related to the best carved Palembang JD-hilts. I am quite picky nowadays but this is just astonishing!!! It's much better than the one in the Royal collection. Michael PS It's interesting that the open flower carvings on the blade resembles the Malay work from Banjarmasin (like sometimes seen on Beladah Belabang)? |
