I want to bring your earlier comment back up because nobody really replied to your question. Lots of comments about the "bling" but nothing in regard to your suggestion of a tumpal motif, which makes sense to me. |

Peter Dekker notes this in the "Tumpal" glossary entry on his site.

In hands of time, The crafts of Aceh, by Barbara Leigh,
the writer refers a bamboo shoot motif, Pucuk rebung. In this old thread there is also information : http://www.vikingsword.com/vb/showth...ighlight=atjeh |
