Big and small barong

I'll see if I can take some close-ups on the weekend (alas, my camera isn't the best, but I'll see how it goes).

Certainly could be older than my guess. If it's older than 1950, it's been very well looked after. Doesn't seem to have had much use, so might be old and in good condition. But the chips don't suggest great care. And it's on the crude side, which suggests to me made for use or sale to tourists ('tisn't tourist junk, though).

It inspires me to get more barongs!
