Thank you for your comment.

The pendok is still closed at the bottom, but severely crushed. It is made out of brass and the decoration on the pendok is only on 1 side.
The inner side is covered with wood and the pendok can be separated from the top part containing the wranka.
I have to say that I am not an expert on this subject. I will post some close up pictures tomorrow whit daylight.
The deer like creature is a kantjil, a dwarve deer only found on Java.
On the island there are many fables about this animal outwitting its enemies.
