Wonderful examples you are showing here. The first with akar bahar and traditional enamel work. Do you have information about the age of these 2 pieces ? Best regards, Willem |

Here is the picture from the gold sewar I found on the website of the Tropenmuseum. As for "tge age, they only mention "pre 1947" which is not very precise unfortunately
