Hi Alam Shah,
yours is a truly lovely keris. I agree the black iron looks very classy.

A few more details for this piece:
Surakarta ladrangan wrongko made of a dark red wood, and has a brass pendok with embossed design of flowers and vines. The ukiran is of naga sari wood, form is yudowinatan, and the mendak is gilt. Blade length is 14", overall length is 20". I have attached 2 more of Alan's excellent pictures.
cheers
