Another pics, of Madura ornamental hilts. Some old maduran hilts were carefully carved...

Another old Madura ornamental hilt, made of ivory...

ganjawulung · 15th June 2008, 09:17 AM

This is the most common form of maduran (ivory) hilt, still ornamental but slimmer...

ganjawulung · 15th June 2008, 09:23 AM

Nice hilts as well as interesting thread topic!
Here are two other variations of the Donoriko hilt.
I would love to see more variations of this hilt.

I possibly may be able to show some other variations, but I have not had the time to look at my Madura hilts, nor to photograph them.

Many years ago a friend who was associated with the kraton in Sumenep told me that hilts bearing the flying horse were Suminep origin, and hilts that bore the crown were Pamekesan origin.

Hilts that bore neither of these symbols could be from anywhere, and were probably the property of people who were not associated with either Suminep or Pamekesan.

I have now had time to select a few Madura hilts for posting here. I've had a look at something more than 100 Madura hilts, and I have selected a few that I consider to be a little different to most, in some way or another.
Each hilt is shown in two dimensions and each hilt is the subject of a separate post.
