Congratulations! This would be a very very rare Bugis keris indeed. The last time I remembered I was wowed was when I saw this "chieftain" keris in Paul De Souza's collection, with crosses and chevrons in the pamor. But your specimen's "star" pamor looks even more outstanding!

I like it. Would this be used for ceremonial purposes?

![]() I judge that you have keris singkerrusumange genuine and original because of its position below the connection body and legs of keris. You can see the position of the royal kris Bugis and Makassar all put in that position. Because in Bugis culture there is a philosophy of the head, torso, and legs in the design of traditional houses as well as weapons. NICE COLLECTION |
