One of my 7 Kacip (6 javanese or balinese and 1 burmese) is very similar to one of yours. It was purchased in the fifties in Jakarta by its previous owner.
But on the internet I have often read that inlaid kacip with lion or horse design have a Balinese origin.

I have not found on the forum more topic about the kacip. I'm surprised because they http://www.vikingsword.com/vb/attach...49205&stc=1are a very aesthetic objects and sometimes very sophisticated.
