Sword (Kris) by artist. Silver-colored metal dagger with a long, narrow blade that tapers to a point. The blade shows signs of wear and aging with a rough texture and darker spots. The hilt is made of reddish-brown material, possibly wood or horn, and features intricate carvings. A small gold-colored metal piece separates the hilt from the blade. The background is a plain light gray color.
