Is this a Malay hulu called Takala and the flaming wood is Ketenga? Body is strongly twisted. This typical wood is an indication for the origin?

Hello Paul,

This timber (especially including the lighter peripheral layers not part of the core) was commonly utilised in the northern Malay regions. This hilt was most likely carved in Terengganu (or possibly Kelantan); both areas belong to the northern Malay cultures. Regards, Kai |
