Places to buy keris in London
Years ago, Robert Hales had his shop in London.
Am in London a few days. Does anyone know or can recommend shops where it is possible to buy/see keris in London? Shops are always better than museums as one can handle the keris. Also which museums have the best keris collection on display? Grateful for any advice. |

Michael German Antiques Ltd, 38b Kensington Church St. (not far from Bob Hales's old shop) sometimes has a few keris

The Wallace Collection is a must see, if you havn't been there before.
For buying, have a look round Gray's Antique Centre, near Bond Street. (Within walking distance of the Wallace Collection). Portobello Road Market on Saturday morning is another possibility. If you have the time, a trip to the Pitt-Rivers Museum in Oxford is also a good idea. |
