Ki Amuk, thank you so much again, definitely i need to learn more from you. Also, i found it difficult to find reading materials written by our ancestors. I will be very happy if i could access your library

Of course, as the owner of the piece, you have the right to name the handle as you will.
However, I follow a “pakem” that dates back to at least the the 12th.C.
In the absence of data “from the horse’s mouth”, please consider whether you can reconcile the “perah” with a stylised “makara”, “ceker kidang”, or a “belut” (or perhaps, indeed, with something else).

Best,
