May I back up all the wow's and oh's and other compliments.
What a job. Good to read that it took you a very long time, otherwise I would turn green with envy
Wonderfull piece btw.
I am especially intrigued by the inlay restoration.
Where did you find tips/instructions to do this ?
I have tried this with pure gold on an old spear head approx a year ago and it was a dissaster.
a few milimeters would hold, and if I progressed, the piece at the start would curl up again.
Maybe I should indeed retry it with brass.
Anyway. congrats. cool looking piece. Happy to see this in these sort of boring lock down times.
Best regards,
Willem
