This is the upper section of a kalis scabbard, carved from a single block of hardwood. The carved walls follow the classic okir-inflected contouring, though the decoration is restrained. A single vertical motif—likely a simplified dapun (leaf) element—is incised along the center line, with the rest of the surface left plain.
