well selected kemuning woods. The bottom stem is made of angsena
woods having a kemuning bottom tip in the form called the patat lipas

variations and all pattern are unplanned or pamor tiban. A person with a
good background on pamor patterns can find a few unplanned pamor tiban

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 century with newly made fittings.
