Alam Shah, Greybeard and David, thank you for the comments

David, I have really no experience with this. I thought, it would be a peninsular keris.

Hi Gustav, it is indeed a very nice keris naga bugis, you got there. It has all the features of naga that is almost similiar to mine with the distinctive 3 "clove of leaves" on top the naga head. Congrats

Are the blades tempered (sepuhan)? for such Bugis type blades with no pamor, the temper mark shd be fairly obvious.

Hello Jentayu, thank you, also for posting your very nice and interesting keris for comparison. May I ask what is the estimation of age for your keris?

About "leaves" on the head of Naga - if there are no meanings - they could be also feathers.

It is quite subjective to put dates on kerises, Gustav. Yup those thing above the naga head could also be feathers.....I guess if anyone out there who knows about what they are and the symbolic importance it has on keris naga bugis; would you like to share it with us?
