I get answer from the seller about the provenance: He have bought it by an auction and the auction-house don't want to give informations about the presenter.

Here's the same wrap on a mid 20th century kris .
Your's has great patina .

Remember, any change to this kris (excluding the sacbbard ring) other than cleanup/conservation would change its character .

Hi Rick,

yes, direct the same style. Don't worry, apart from refitting the scabbard mouth and cleaning/etching the kris will keep it's original flair.

Regards,

Detlef

Hi Detlef,

Maybe the auction house can forward your emailaddress to the presenter.
If he/she doesn't mind he/she would contact you, and the auction house doesn't have to give informations about the presenter.
50% chance (if the auctionhouse will do the effort passing your emailaddress)...
