The back of the tajong looks fine to me. Not all the panels have to be carved. In fact, the earlier into history of the tajong hilt you go, the greater the proportion of uncarved panels on the hilt.
Uncarved panels have their beauty as well. Sometimes I find the late-period tajongs overly carved, and looked too "busy". Blank panels can enhance the appreciation of the form of the hilt. |
