Hello Paolo,
Nice balinese hilt, it seems to depict a Shivaistic priest, it is probably not more than 50 years old I think according to the integrated selut for instance. The materials may be marine ivory or deer antler, check the peksi hole and top to detect any porosity. Other opinions are welcome!
Regards
