Yes, that is a truly outstanding example. I have seen several good ones, one way or another, but this is about as good as one is likely to see. Miraculously fine and well-judged metal work, for one thing. Good colour, good motifs - all excellent! Thanks for showing it ...
That WOULD cost a fortune, now - and it would definitely sell, too. Who would expect anything yet better??
I absolutely love this - wish you still had it for sale. Just one or two added really good pieces of - preferably - Minangkabau or Bugis origin would do us just fine.
yes I sold three masterpieces like this all to same person and she finds them some of her favorite pieces.
I think one of my favorite all time Indonesian pieces I have sold , although there was a good run for a while of really good things, including some incredible cuffs from Suluwesi.
Yes, I know the pair from Sulawesi as well, and they whet my appetite every time I see them on your page ...
