Hullo everybody!

I need help in locating a kris/keris with fretwork similar to that shown in the picture attached. Please look at it carefully if you think you may be able to help.

Thank you.

Best,

Looks Balinese to me.

It is from a time period when Javanese and Balinese was very close.

This greneng does not fit within the major recognised Javanese greneng forms of any period.

It is very probably the work of a maker who was not influenced by a major keris classification.

It might be of some assistance to see a well executed photograph of the entire keris.
