On the topic of ivory dress, I happened to come across the below ensemble in a book I was browsing through.
According to the caption it was a gift from Hamengkubuwono VIII to Queen Wilhelmina in 1923. No doubt this piece was meant for display only, as there would have been absolutely no occasion for this keris to be worn in any setting. |
