The emblem is placed upon a black square. An eight-pointed star (as the Star of an Order of Knighthood) in gold, a central disc coloured as a flag, black (dexter - or left) white (centre) & red (sinister - or right). Crossed whips, a Maltese cross, a disc with 3 tridents in the North East & West positions, the handle of the top trident is seen below in the South position all in gold. There is also a ribbon attached to this emblem in the base with a motto, above the trident at the top is what looks like a kris (keris) also in gold. Below this emblem is another gold ribbon with a motto. Below all in gold capital letters is "PURI AGUNG DENPASIR" (Kings Palace of Den Pasir: Note Den Pasir is the English way of writing it, the other is local).

I found an image of Balinese ethnic flag based on historic flag. Black, white and red are their national colors. [Below] are photos of Balinese three colors I took in Bali several years ago.
