Superb find!!!

Could you take a picture of the hilt from the side facing down (along the edge)?
It might be the rarer Garuda-variation, instead of the regular makara/flower bud.

Nope, I meant lower (from the ferrule and up).

PS It's from Lombok, not Sumatra.

VVV,

I am curious what about this piece assures its origin is from Lombok? Are there characteristics of it that make that a definite?
