Kris Junggayan Silver Gold Inlay Filigree

Greetings folks!

I received this kris last year and it has taken a year to fully restore it. The junggayan pommel is tested solid heavy cast silver! Hilt bands are made of twisted silver wire and gold plated silver. I restored the missing silver inlay. There is a plate of silver on top of the ganga and the ansang-ansang clamps are made of low silver.

The scabbard was split and I put it together with a new pin. Down the scabbard are silver bands I replaced (with one exception).

I believe this kris to be Sulu and the 2nd time I have ever seen filigree on a silver pommel (the 1st being CharleS's).

These first pictures are the kris as I got it.

Enjoy!
