Wax (?) on the pendok

Yes, and the Wilah which is the heart; may have been associated with special events in its past.
That we can only guess about .

Alan - but not the end of such Slorok with elaborated pattern.

Gustav, the center front panel is a slorok, it is a separate part to the body of the pendok, the open end of the pendok can be made flat, or it can be made curved, this one has been made flat.

In the pic it looks Jogja, but it is difficult to know from the pic if the overall decrease from open end to closed end is sufficient for a Jogja pendok.

However, we can fit just about any sort of pendok to just about any sort of wrongko, it is an easy thing for a m'ranggi, and even for an experienced collector it is no big deal.

Alan, the upper end of Jogja Slorok should be more curved, as should be the end of Pendok on the backside. We can adjust the backside of such Pendok, but not the end of a Slorok with elaborated pattern and pronounced border at the Atasan without making a new border part for that adjustment there (which nevertheless wouldn' fit the overall pattern). I doubt that was the case here.

Rick - could a special event be court related?

Gustav & Alan - thank you for your input.

Hello Albert,

Here you can see how a kemalo pendok looks like.

Thank you for showing the image of the kemalo Pendok, also for the added information.

They apply the lacquer thick and heavy on the Pendok, looking at the remnants of my example.
