Moro kris with silver sideplates

Here is a moro kris with silver sideplates with ukil engraving. Early 1900s blade that is 20 1/2 inches long. Top and bottom of scabbard is faced with tortoise shell with dot decoration. The back facing is engraved aluminum. The stone in the center I think is lapis with what appears to be flecks of gold. This stone might be used to ward off the "EVIL EYE", some kind of anting-anting..............Dave.
