barung, kris, gunong: my first post

Hello Jose and Ian,

agree with you both to have here three 20th century pieces but it's maybe a little disappointing for our new member to read "recent" for the age of his pieces. Would agree with recent for the gunong but it's a very nice worked piece. The barong is maybe from WWII area, so I would call it "vintage"

.
But very nice carved pommel!

The kris seems to my eyes the oldest piece of this small collection and when my eyes don't play a bad game with me I think to see that the gangya is separat, so maybe is this piece from the 1920/30ties?

Regards,
Detlef
