Beautiful puppy!

I have not seen asang-asang like that before. I have not seen such okir chasing work like this on Sulu pieces (though the ferrule is Sulu style of okir). The ivory is amazing! Blade is georgeous!

I am surprised at the angle of the pommel - usually you see this type of angle and direction on post 1950s pieces.

Thank you so much for the sharing.
