I apologize to everyone but the noise you heard was my eyes hitting the floor. I’ve now put them back into my skull! 😳

Nothing exceeds like excess.

That said, there's room in my collection for these, but insufficient volume in the exchequer.

Well, i happen to be a big fan of Bali keris, but i understand you thought here Marco. I prefer my keris just a bit more understated than these. A bit of gold is one thing, but i am afraid i am simply not royal enough for these.

It's gorgeous, though verging on garish! Then again what do I know :P I wonder what those purple gems are.

They're actually reddish, and we would call them "mirah" in Jawa.

They might be sapphires, or garnets, or tourmalines, or --- since this is Bali --- pastes.
