Keris Madura Lurus Qul Buntet Sada Saler 0522 -
A very good and rare example of a keris form the island of Madura. Finely carved handle
and top sheath or wrangka in
the sandang
walikat Madura
form, are made from well selected pelet
woods
with contrasting grains, having the bottom stem encased with finely repoussed brass
stem cover or
pendok blewah.
Long and very sturdy blade is
lurus
or straight and has rather plain base features or
perabots,
with an overall shape or
dapor
called
tilam upih.
Pamor patter are arranged in the miring technique
showing two swirls formations at the top and base joined by a singular line. The
swirl pamor is called pamor qul buntet, while the straight
vertical pamor is called pamor sada saler.
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 late 19th early 20th century.
Length of blade: 15". Overall length: 20.5".
