A very good example of a keris from the northern Malaysian peninsular regions of Terengganu. Finely carved handle in the anak ayam teleng or cuddling chick form and top sheath in the kusiwo form, are made from well grained kemuning woods, with the bottom stem made of angsana woods having tiger’s stripe grains. A thick gold plated brass ferrule or pendoko to complete fittings.
Very sturdy blade is straight or lurus, but having an arcing profile, with plain base features or perabots, has an overall shape or dapor called sepokal in Malay.
Pamor patterns are arranged in the miring technique showing a peak formation at the base called ujung gunung or mountain peak, and along the edges are jagged lines called pamor gigi yu or shark’s teeth.
With two pamor patterns it is also called dwi warna or bi colored.

Length of blade: 14"
Overall length: 18.5"
Condition: Very good condition.
Age: Krises are traditionally made without any date stampings or engravings of the makers’ name. Although a kris smith or “empu” has his own styles configured together with the dapor and especially the ganjar (cross piece). Obvious age wear and tear, usage, familiarity with forms, motifs and designs, origin and history, mediums and materials used are our guidelines in determining an approximate age. This particular piece, from our experience and knowledge, should go back to the newly made.
