Cool

If I didn't know better I would guess that you're a Travel Agent, Jimmy.

Another mystery tour, this time to Amsterdam. An old and beautiful -- if not the most -- keris holder from the collection of Tropen Museum, Amsterdam. Depicted who?

I am thinking that this is Hanuman the monkey general friend of Rama.

IT is a nice piece - thank you for posting.

Great sculpture indeed ! I too think it depicts Hanuman, but am asking myself: where the keris has to be inserted ?

Here is one of my keris holders: Hanuman again !
I think it is a rather recent manufacture, now it has a big crack in the base.
Forget the keris. It has nothing to do with Bali.
