Timang

[A. G. Maisey]

Yes, the price of timang has become ridiculous over the last 10-15 years or so.

I bought all of mine prior to the monetary crisis --- which is when the price of all old things in Indonesia went ballistic --- and I didn't pay silly prices for them, but timang, and in fact anything old and reflective of cultural values, has just gone crazy lately.

Here are a few more timang, and some other Javanese bits and pieces --- suweng, tusuk konde , binggel etc,etc
