Interesting keris ended by ebay

If the pendok is brass, the selut tin and yakut, and the mendak gilt, you could not buy this keris in Solo for the price it sold for on ebay.

If the pendok is swasa, the selut silver and the stones intan, the mendak gold, whoever bought it got the bargain of the century.

I would willingly pay more than this keris was sold for.

Mendak looks more like suasa to me. What a piece if true!

From pic the pendok seems to me not to be suasa. Ukiran and gayaman seem to be sandalwood

Yes Marco, I'd say certainly scented sandalwood.
