It just happened to me to find a similar keris which is in the collection of the Moscow State Museum of Oriental art. It is described as a 19th cent. Sumatran manufacture, 3luk, pamor adeg, ivory java deman hilt, not original silvered copper mendak, ivory sheath with 3 brass rings. It is described as a miniature and a talisman.
Here are the measurements in cms, compared with those of my keris: Moscow keris My keris total length 24,6 22 keris " 21,5 20 blade " 15,6 14 hilt " 5,4 5,7 Enclosed a photo from the museum catalogue |

Sorry, the measures appear quite blurred. It should be like this:
24,6/22 21,5/20 15,6/14 5,4/5,7 Therefore my keris is a bit smaller |
