INDO496: Indonesian Klewang Sword

High quality large klewang sword. I believe this sword is from Madura as it has both Bali and Javanese characteristics, but I am not 100% sure. The handle is well carved wood that has a good dark patina from age and use. The blade is quality forging with a fuller on each side of the blade, but no signs of a pamor pattern that I can see. The scabbard is original with a horn section at the throat.     

Previously in the collection of Sherrod Anderson, Virginia.

31” Overall – 22 ½” Blade. 19th century, Indonesia.
