Nice example. I have seen this odd form before somewhere. Yes, i am not certain about the description in the book. It doesn't quite look like a cat to me. In any case i would be curious to understand the meaning behind this symbolism. Perhaps there is a folktale that applies here.

The rendering shows a cat if I look at the small almost hidden ears. Mine clearly shows doglike ears. Anyone else having a clue?

Question : what is a keris hilt?!
 1. something attached to a keris to serve as a hilt or... 2. something that is made with the purpose to serve as hilt for a keris?!

Maybe someone can enlight me about the pamor involved. Is there more then one pamor (dwiwarna?) or do I look at a (worn) kind of Toya mambeg or karawelang?

Thanks for the comments.
Good quality scabbard and pendok but I need to replace the mendak (missing and / or broken stones). From the former collector Dr. Lameijer...does it ring a bell ? |
