In respect of black kemalo on a gandar.
Black can be used by all ranks within the Karaton hierarchy, and it can also be used by the general public.
It is the correct colour kemalo for wear at a funeral.
However, that does not necessarily mean that it was given black kemalo for wear at a funeral, only the person who had the black kemalo applied could tell you the reason he had it done, but a well mannered person would not ask him why, and if he was asked he probably would not tell you the true reason in any case.
