  • Dapur Tilam Upih: The Dapur Tilam Upih, resembling a mattress, symbolizes:
    • Protection and security: The Dapur Tilam Upih is often associated with protection and security, as if the wearer is in a safe harbor.
    • Calmness and tranquility: It represents inner peace, tranquility, and the ability to calmly overcome difficult situations.
    • Stability and permanence: The Dapur Tilam Upih also symbolizes stability, permanence, and a solid foundation in life.

The tuah (spiritual power) of this dapur is traditionally associated with the ability to provide its owner with peace, tranquility, and protection.

  • Pamor Kembang Lampes: The Pamor Kembang Lampes, often compared to flower petals, symbolizes:
    • Beauty and grace: The delicate flower patterns embody beauty, grace, and elegance.
    • New beginnings and growth: Flowers often represent new life, growth, and renewal.
    • Delicacy and sensitivity: The pamor can also represent delicacy and sensitivity, indicating a fine and sensitive nature of the owner.
  • Warangka in Gayaman Yogyakarta Style: The warangka (sheath) is crafted in the elegant Gayaman Yogyakarta style from noble Galih Asem wood. This style is characterized by its simple elegance and harmonious proportions. Galih Asem (heartwood of the tamarind tree) is a very hard and valuable wood, prized for its dark color and spiritual significance.
  • Pendok Bunton: The pendok bunton (metal covering of the sheath) is made of gold-colored brass and is decorated with motifs that further enhance the aesthetics of the keris. These motifs can have additional symbolic meanings.
  • Handle in Yogyakarta Style: The handle, matching the warangka in the Yogyakarta style, is made of dark brown wood and fits comfortably in the hand.
  • Mendak: The mendak (ferrule) made of golden brass connects the handle and blade elegantly.

This keris is not only a valuable collectible with historical and cultural significance but also a powerful symbol with deep spiritual meaning. It is an ideal object for connoisseurs, collectors, and lovers of traditional Indonesian art.
