Example of gold Sewar in my collection
Another example of gold crown sewar in my collection. It has the same profile and style akin to sewar supposedly belong to the last sultan of Aceh that Micheal Backman sold lately.Are this the typical form and style donned for sewar reserved for royalty?

I am not sure that pieces like this are only reserved for royalty?
 I think that wealthy people also could have owned thus a piece but frankly I don't know it exactly.Beautiful piece with gold, suassa, ivory and akar bahar, very very nice!  Regards, Detlef |
