Hello tunggulametung,
Thanks for your reply.
ET buy keris

NO, by Outsiders I meant people from outside the indonesian culture.
But from your reply I understand that this object may also be made a a djimat.
The shape of an old man with hat and beard does not look very Indonesian to me, so therefore I had the feeling that this was made for westerners.
Best wishes for 2011 !
Willem
