Tunggulametung, thank you very much for the interesting picture. I have darkened it a little bit to see better the details. It comes from Pagerrujung, half way between Semarang and Pekalongan, Central Java.

Gustav, I think it is belong to Pagaruyung palace of West Sumatra, if I remember correctly there's another version of the keris photo taken in a ceremony but I can't find it.

I attach another similar example below

Gustav, maybe I mixed up with other photo/keris but I think I've seen the similar set belong to a ceremony held in Pagaruyung, West Sumatra (old photo). So now I don't know for sure
