You will find that Borneo lantaka and other Indonesian lantaka will be in the shape of crocodiles or naga. Floral patterns and Indonesian okir are even on these. Some of the latter were made in Europe.

Moro lantaka seem rare and usually have more okir on them or are plain. Below is my mini-lantaka as an example. Note the Sulu okir work, especially on the top.
