Molar hilt, sumatran keris for comments

[A. G. Maisey]

Yes, I've seen and been offered both hilts and scabbards made of fossilised material.But it is not a good choice. The material itself is not stable and over time tends to crack and crumble.

In Central Jawa the fossil material on the market comes from the fossil beds at Sangiran. In Bali the fossil ivory and geraham is imported from Alaska.
