The ivory parts were carved in Bali. Not sure where the gold fittings were made in, but apparently, 3 different types of craftsmen were involved. One for repousse, one for the wire-works, one to set the stones.
The chain on the pendoko - the only example I saw in a book was for a Goa state keris. |
