Some of my Aceh favorites :)
Just to share
 I collect status and state pieces from North Sumatra (Aceh/Gajo/Batak) and this morning I made a few pics of some of my Aceh favorites.....here is one pic to share with some related period items.*Kupiah (hat) of the high type *Sikin with triple crown/rencongs with triple crowns/sikin with double crown (only to be used by Aceh noble people or high ranking officials like a panglima) *Peurisse with 5 stars (most often 7) *Atjeh Medal 1873/74 and the Kruis voor belangrijke Krijgsverrigtingen with Atjeh clasp *3 djimats (amulets)- 2 fossil shells and one blunderbuss bullet - all with protective inscriptions in arabic lettering *Set of sirih utensils (some with enamel like on the crowns) *Sirih or chalk box Regards, Erik PS I am always looking to improve my collection so if you have something that might be of interest from this region let me know
