Hallo, this is not my area! So i dont really know where this comes from. It looks Indonesian is that so?

Hilt carving and mount style seem to be Cirebon, northern Java. This is a sword style typical of that area, so that's my guess.

Tempius Jawa or pedang tusuk or stabbing sword...
 
I tend to agree with CharlesS. Looks like a pedang tusuk or tempius jawa, but the hilt looks like a keris hilt. The silverworks are indeed indonesian styled. Imo, only. ;)

Similar example of a pedang tusuk or tempius jawa.

I agree with Alam Shah. That hilt looks like an ukiran from Cirebon. The sword is a pedang type.
