I can't tell if this sheath is old or not but I notice that the atasan was broken in 2 places. The decoration shows the blazon of the Solo kraton but the finish is not that good.
The blade looks old and the pamor is nice (Tirto Tejo?) but it lacks elegance due to the indistinct and uneven waves, these pieces are often attributed to Cirebon, any other opinion?
Best regards
