Congrats! I bid on those myself. Excellent items. I settled for the smaller aruval with peacock carving.

On a weird little side note, the word congavellum sounds very Latin to me so I decided just for fun to try to google translate it. Apparently "conga vellum" translates to "prepare the skin".

Thank you for this information, Nihl. It is greatly appreciated. Hope to see closer photos once you recieve the item. Here is one from my collection that I acquired a few years back for the records.
