Symbolism on Madura hilts?
4 Attachment(s)
I read a nice thread here on madura hilts.
I was wondering if there is more info around or knowledge from members of the forum on the symbolism of these hilts? I have read also a bit in D. van Duuren's Kris booklet and in Greffioz book. I'll ad here some pictures of a hilt in my collection that has almost all standard examples. Kojuk mrenges hilt in bone or ivory with Sides: Military Epaulets on both sides (does this make it a landhian pulasir?) Beneath that Kuda Panoleh on one side Winged dragon on the other side Masks and birds on the bottom of the hilt On the top also a few dragons Front: Crown Theather style drapings Mask? inside this? |
