I found this keris hilt recently.... Curious to know the ornament style. Could I say, this is a certain hilt with langkasuka motifs? Or just souvenir quality hilt, which ressemble a "langkasuka keris hilt"?

The hulu was made by a known living master, certainly not tourist as he makes bespoke pieces.

Hullo ganjawulung!
