I think you got a point there, Detlef.
Because of the norm, I've seen most bugis keris without its etching and on certain point, it is nice to see it like that.

If I was not mistaken, I can see that the blade has been warang / etched / stained. If it was a bugis-riau keris, do it...

Hi Sajen,
The hilt is sea ivory, I've been told. Looks like a Palembang hilt, wasn't it?

Thanks for the link, Alam.

Well, I reckon there must be a slight different from the typical Bugis keris. As for this case, the hilt. Or it is just simply because it was made there.
The same puzzling question that is similar...

Is the Selayar island is only attributed for this kind of hilt? Or...
