21st Century Keris

[David]

This is a beautiful modern keris. I do understand that many collected are focused on antique keris, however, as i have often stated, the keris is a living tradition and heritage and it his important that we support the creation of new keris in order to keep the tradition alive. This is a handsome example of modern keris making and one that should be welcome in any collection.
Here are a couple of other examples of similar pamors that are probably related to Pande Keris Seni Pauzan Pusposukadgo's Poleng pamor.

This is not mine and it is from a photo sent by a friend. The craftsman are from Madura.

Love it! I think the gonjo makes it look so much better. I think you (and also others) are doing the right thing going into new kerises. I am thinking to do the same too.

It really helps the smiths expand. The industry continue to grow and eventually the smiths will become even better in what they do.

Thank you Milandro, yes let’s wait 100 years from now…..

Thank you for your insights regarding the pamor Alan. I believe the Keris made by Pande Seni Keris Fauzan and presented to Bapak Surono (Menkopolkam) was a token of appreciation from Keraton Surakarta since Bapak Surono was the government representative in supervising the re-build of the Keraton that was damaged by fire.

Thank you Jagabuwana.

Thank you David and Anthony for showing the Poleng Pamor.

I absolutely agreed with David and Rasdan that we need to keep the tradition alive by going into new Keris.

Yes, that is so YS.

"Fauzan" did not use that spelling nor pronunciation as his prestige increased, he used "Pauzan".

Well noted Alan, I'll use Pauzan for future reference.

Thank you
