Keris Holders

I found this little lady.
approx 35 cms high but capable of carrying a big balinese if needed.

Any suggestions on who she is ?

Could be Willem, but he's a lovely fellow anyway.

I am writing a thesis on balinese keris holders and holders in general and would appreciate any expert knowledge anyone may have.

BTW, How about the thesis of Cecas ?

Can we have a peek at the thesis ?

Would love to see some more examples of kerisholders by the way.
For me keris, is just something on the side. There must be collectors on the forum with better examples ?

Best regards,
Willem

David,

I very much like this image of Hanuman! Where did you acquire this piece and do you know when it was made?

Hi Cecas! So glad to know that you have not deserted us. I was hoping my e-mail would bring you back, but at the same time i was prepared for the general reality of the hard, cruel world.

I am afraid i cannot tell you too much about my Hanuman. I purchased it from a dealer in California. It's not particularly old, but i like the carving and the way it has been painted.

Willem, i'm not convinced this is a lady at all. "She" is pretty flat-chested for a woman.
