Any comments on this barung? I thought it was interesting and purchased because it had a few symbols I had not seen before.

Thumbs up Odd markings

Here are the markings on Mabagini's new barung, just so we have a record for everyone. At least one of these, notably the diamond with little circles at the corners, does not strike me as being exclusively Moro as I have seen similar marks on an item from Luzon. My wife had a 19th C. gold pendant with a Catholic icon on one side and this mark on the other.
