This very fine Sumatran Sewar with ivory and silver hilt remains is exceptional condition throughout.

This seldom seen type measures 33cms in its sheath, 32.5 out and has a blade length of 25cms to the silver covered bolster.
The hilt is a nicely aged and finely carved example of simple design, typical to the knife type. The hilt and bolster are wrapped in a fine silver dress which display native design motifs and tooling.
The blade is a simple slender forward curving type akin to the Sumatran rencong.
The timber sheath is also decorated in silver panels, each displaying a simple native repousse design.

A very fine and seldom seen example of the type.
