I do have a very old wooden Cirebon wrongko where the gandar is shaped like this pendok style, so it very likely is Cirebon.

I have recollection of somebody telling me quite recently that this style of pendok has started to be made again by somebody, but I forget the details.

Good evening Alan

Here is a picture from this forum. Is this the type of wrongko / gandar you are referring to ?

As for the silver pendok in this style.
I have seen them popping up in the Netherlands for a few years now.
I am under the impression that they might be recent productions after an old model. I find them attractive regardsless of age or origin.

Best regards,
Willem
