Here we have a few pendoks.

From the left we have two pendoks that most collectors at the present time would classify as Banyumas, however, these two pendoks both came off very old Surakarta (ie, Solo) gayaman wrongkos.

The third pendok from the left is a Solo Bunton, that is followed by a Jogjakarta Bunton, then a Solo Bunton, then a Jogjakarta witth a slorok, then a Solo Blewah, then a Jogjakarta with a slorok, then a Solo Blewah, then a Jogjakarta Blewah, the last two items in this line are sloroks, one from a Jogjakarta pendok, one from a Solo pendok.

Note the difference in overall profile, and the way in which the Jogja style pendok narrows towards the buntut (literally "tail", "rear end"), something that is difficult to see in a photo is that the buntut of a Jogja pendok is much more rounded than a Solo pendok buntut.

The overall profile of the pendok that Kino posted a photo of is that of a Solo pendok, however, it has a slorok that is decidedly Jogjakarta in style. The slorok of Kino's pendok could have been produced by alteration, but it is more likely that the entire pendok was made on a Solo sanglon (mandrel) in a Jogja workshop, most likely in Imogiri.
