The shape of the sampir somehow tells me it is Minangkabau, as do the carved and tall Jawa Demam hilt. The pucuk rebong motif on the silverworks is quite distinctively Malay. But Malay pieces usually have tapak kuda, and especially with the tampuk manggis design.
The blade itself has a pinggang (waist), an almost imperceptible tapering just above the sor-soran. And most panjangs don't have any pamor. Interesting fusion in all. I'd go for Negri Sembilan which has strong Minang influence. |
