Sorry Detlef but I disagree. If I read the book "The kris invincible I°" and compare it with the articles and books written by Mrs. Ghiringhelli later, I find only a single line of interpretation that shows me a profound knowledge on kris' symbolism from which I have always new reasons for deepening

Hello Marco,

like I write, it was speculation. And like I write before are the pictures very good and there are shown some very interesting hilts. She have a great collection for sure and we can be happy that she share it with us.

I fully agree with Marco. Detlef, if you read the book you will notice that the hilt collection does not belong to Mrs Vanna but to an Italian collector with a great taste.
