Restored Tajong

The lighter coloured parts most likely indicated the presence of old silver/swasa decorations. However, the seemingly lack of pegging holes suggest that the decorations were added during a period when adhesives were available, and swasa nail pegs were not used. Still, it was an old "upgrade", and Michael restored that.

How do the mounts stay on - glue?

Yes, he used some kind of special glue for gold alloys.
