Brekele,
I think it is a keris bethok. And I think like you said the lunglunan is a later addition. Certainly a nice keris. |

Would love to see sharper photos of this keris.
![]() It looks like a fairly modern revisioning to me. I very often don't like revisioned keris, but this one has a very interesting and whimsical flow to it. The revisioning of the old wrongko is interesting too. Again, nomally i would think the metal and gem work too out of place, not traditional work at all. But it really seems to fit with the work done on the blade. I don't know if i like it more than i might have the untouched blade because i don't have before pictures to compare, but i do think the piece has some appeal. ![]() |
