It's amazing how nicely this stuff polishes up . With a high shine it seems almost like the black material is absorbing light .
Akar Bahar also comes in white; has anyone an example of white akar bahar ? |

Just for clarity, the end tip of my rencong is not white coral but an ivory replacement much later.

back in the 1960's and 1970's there was heaps of this stuff available in bali, mostly in the form of bracelets, i had a lot and most have been given away.
i'm not home right now, but when i get back i'll dig out what i can find and post. got some bits of red stuff too. don't have any keris hilts of it, wouldn't mind one. |
