Providence from his estate
By visiting the auction house I was able to obtain direct photographic evidence.

Gosh they are nice. Did you or was there any issues about the ivory? I am sure others would be interested to know.

What a haul. Congrats.
Where’s the Kris with the Garuda(?) hilt. He must’ve placed those ray skins on the handles. |

Congratulations. I saw that auction, but no money to bid. I love not only the krises but also the Tagalog piece with the carved horn and horn/silver scabbard (I was going to go for that one
 ). Also great to have provenance!  Would you be able to post the weapons pictures individually here? |

Intra-State on pieces this old there aren’t any issues where I live. DO NOT attempt anything like this with international purchases!! I recently had piece go through that process from Italy and it took several months… none where Ivory and it was still a really difficult process and cost significantly more to get the items to the US. Hope that helps!! |
