    I love the Paua/Abalone shell family. It's always stellar looking. My best sellers.

    Very nice. I've done a few sets of scales out of various woods. I want to do my next out of an acrylic or some other interesting material.

    GREAT WORK.

    Damn ! I was gonna ask if I could have the old scales
    Nice work on the acrylic/paua btw.
    Someone may have a more accurate date but pre 1890 if no England stamp.
