Hi everybody,
What Alan said is spot on. Pendok in first post is a made in Jogja for Solo keris. So it is a Solo pendok wannabe and looks more like a Jogja pendok. I have one example but it is currently with a tukang for repair.
Another type is Solo pendok but made with repoussé technique. That is also Jogja made. I dont know if there are old Solo pendok that uses repoussé technique.
All this are new and typical pengrajin level works. I don't know if older ones exists although the one in the first post look like it has some age to it.
There is trend of mixing Jogja and Solo features on warangkas. But to my knowledge it is more towards styling and not with that type pendok. And I don't know how old is the trend or whether it is a legit style or just newer creation.
