Stuart,
To have so successively adapted this traditional design, and then produced such a complex, beautiful example shows someone working at the top range of our craft.
I'm truly in awe, and absolutely love this object, in whole and in detail.

A masterfully done work of art..........better, in my opinion, than anything with gold and rubies!Stuart, that is truly a magnificent piece!
Next step, gold and rubies!
I hope you charged a LOT of money for this.
