As David says, please carefully avoid any commercially-oriented post (use the swap forum for this purpose) and I advise you to check the correct English names in a good dictionary, for instance I think that by gloves you mean sheath/ sarong/ warangka and by Upstream the hilt/ hulu/ ukiran? We are all familiar with the common (Javanese) kris terms so you can use them.
Best regards

Thanks for showing us one of your keris! Small blades of this general type I've seen mainly coming from Riau and surroundings.

However, your blade does exhibit very strong etching/warangan. This I haven't seen from the larger Sumatera area nor Kalimantan Timur yet. Where did you obtained this keris?

Regards,
Kai
