In this case royal means it comes from a royal aristocratic family and this got nothing to do with personal taste.
A royal Keris can be recognised by his level of artwork and amount of gold.
As far as i know, in ancient times gold was only allowed to aristocratic members of the society. Or as a gift from the aristocracy/nobility for important "normal" people (small amount of gold) or as a gift for other royals/high army representatives from all over the world (often a lot of gold).
