Mataram Keris

Hi forum.
I been doing restoration project for this keris.
I believe this is old keris base on the condition when first time i buy and the layer of forging on the blade . But i dont know the origin of this Sabuk Inten keris.
Any information will be appreciated.
Thank you.
Ridho Pulungan.

Ridho,
You really need to improve your photography; use a plain medium grey background and concentrate on getting good focus.

Trying to tell anything about these pieces in your last 2 posts would be like asking 4 blind men to describe an Elephant.

I do agree with Rick, though some improvements can be made in photoshop.

Thank you so much for your attention.

Hi Ridho,
Quite a bit better.

It ocurred to me last night that many new members may be using their smart phone for pictures instead of a real camera.
David was so good as to dig up this thread that is quite helpful.
