Very nice…though items i have with suassa don't seem to tarnish (and they seem pretty tarnished in the original images) so i wonder if those bands aren't copper instead of suassa. You might want to get it tested if you want to be sure.

Thank you!

David, of course I don't have let test the possible suassa, but it have the correct colour. Have you ever let gold unpolished a long time? It become darker and like this the two bands has looked when I received the gunong.

Will post one or two pictures by day light again.

Regards,

Detlef
