Some questions about Balinese hilt cup.

1 Attachment(s)

Sometimes we encounter a Selut/Mendak construction on Bali Keris, which consists of a stem and a cup. Some questions about it.

Is it an older style, which perhaps had an integrated ring, like South Sumatran Selut or slightly similar constructions from East Java?

Was this style typical for some certain regions in Bali?

There are some older Uwer rings with a short stem. Would they have been parts of such stem/cup construction?
