Willem, these are not hilts that were ever intended to be put on a keris. In Jawa there is a whole field of collecting of keris hilts that does not go anywhere near the actual keris. This is not new. PBX had numerous hilts of various designs carved for his personal collection, that were never intended for use on a keris.

Somebody created these little ladies as individual works of art, not for use on a keris, but for addition to a hilt collection.

I gave them shelter from the storm and made them mine.(Sorry Bob).

No worries Alan...i've always thought that any Dylan line was better song by someone else.

These are indeed interesting. They remind me of some characters that might have escaped from a Gumby clay-mation.

They are ugly in a beautiful way...

An art gallery owner recently told me that the sort of art pieces acquired by art museums need not be pretty.
