Description from the seller

Years: Circa 1850 – 1900 (19th Century)
Size: 45 cm x 13 cm

An authentic, antique 19th-century Indonesian Keris (Kris) dagger from Java. This piece features a traditional straight blade (keris lurus) showing a natural aged patina and visible remnants of hand-forged pamor steel patterning. The weapon is fitted with a beautifully carved, ergonomic dark wood hilt (ukiran). It comes complete with its original matching wooden sheath (warangka) in the classic kidney-shaped gayaman style, fitted with a protective brass outer sleeve (pendok).
