Beautiful. Looks like teak. Do you think the now kratons use this during washing?

Afaik, for Kraton Surakarta, they use a simple boxy piece of wood, (probably cut from a tree-trunk and carved) not as fancy as this. Nice tub.

For this year's Heirloom Rejuvenating Ceremony (Rangsang Rias Pusaka Bangsa) in Singapore, 2 simple wooden tubs were used. Picture showing the 'warangan' tub.

Should I also bring my Polish sabres? No, wait, they and the Moro pieces would be too long for the tub!

But, seriously, I may be there and I would also really like to meet you!

VVV, now have added another title to one of his keris piece.
