any idea about this pamor ?

Sepang · 26th January 2005, 06:24 AM

I'll try to give my opinion about this keris.
It a beautiful keris. Maybe now, very difficult to get keris like this.
This keris like an Old Madura - Majapahit. I mean, made at and by Maduranesse Mpu in Majapahit era.
The Pamor, I called Kupu Tarung or Tambal, but maybe can called Blarak with a "Pamor Luluhan".
Very nice keris and wrangka.

If you don't mind, would you please give me know about price of this piece ? ...and if you don't like this, may I buy this keris ?

Regards,

Hi Weta. This is indeed a beautiful keris. The ivory ukiran is also quite nice. I also really like that lovely jeweled mendak. I must admit i don't particularly care for the pendok, it seems too over done for the overall look of this ensemble. Maybe over time as it loses some of it's brightness it might settle in a bit.

Still, it is beautifully executed.
Exotic pamor are not my strong suit, but i'd say this pamor resembles ron duru more than blarak, except it is moving in the wrong direction. Thanks for showing.

Hi Weta,
Exquisite piece. Love the ukiran. The pamor should be 'ron duru songsang'.

Just kidding. I was trying to look it up in Ensiklopedi Keris, but couldn't find a match. As nechesh said, exotic pamor.

Nice quality pictures. Thanks for sharing.

I'm sorry Andrew, I reflex to know the price if I look some good piece. Really sorry.....,

and I'm so afraid with your sword although it just icon

Just kidding

Weta, I agree with nechesh that your pendoks is not too appropriate. Maybe you can replace it with an old Madura pendoks from silver or brass.

I have some old wrangka like yours with an old pendoks from bruss, and old wrangka with silver pendoks Cirebonan style.
