To my eye, nothing at all, it conforms to type.
I've seen more than a few of these, they all vary slightly, but overall form is the same. Here is one I have, it was bought in Australia during the 1920's, but supposedly came from Malang in East Jawa during the period 1850-1900. My info from Jawa during 1980's is that it is North Coast Jawa. |

Yes, when I first saw it by pictures I also don't understand. Like you say, it conforms to type. But it's very small, see it here with two normal sized examples from the same general type.
Any guess why/for which reason? Child size? Jimat? Regards, Detlef |

It was indeed a very difficult quiz when there were no measurements given.
However, for what? Saturday night special. Worn under the jacket. |
