Default A Sword/Sabre To Identify

Hi All,

Could this sword/sabre be from Sumatra? Does it have a name? Looks like it has pamor.

Cheers.

The blade is not a Javanese form of which I am aware, & I have never seen similar motifs in Javanese silver work.

I really have no firm opinion on where it might have originated.
