Kembang Separung Keris
Now this is one of the keris who entered as contestant of the exhibition, courtesy of Donny Yonatan (not me), and posted here under his permission
This is as we all know, a Balinese keris, with modern pamor, named by the owner as "kembang separung" - or a field full of wildflowers
the inspiration of the pamor itself come from stone walls, many different stones merged into one, basically the philosophy of Indonesia, Bhinneka Tunggal Ika - many different cultures merged into one Indonesia
technique used for making the pamor is "tambal" technique and each of the pamor are (supposedly) different. There are singkir, batu lapak, kupu tarung, to wos wutah pamor condensed into one keris
enjoy
