Bugis? Keris hilt
Hi
Previously I posted images of this hilt asking if it might be rhino as it was sold as such. I can now confirm it is buffalo horn. However a nice surprise that emerged were the tiny faceted, sparkling stones set into the horn. The hilt is very well carved too. The mendak pendok bolster? is unusual and it seems a decent enough keris to me. Opinions welcome.
