"Striking every time you look!"
It never ceases to amaze us how intricate and well-made this piece is... The calendar really makes an impression! Weve hung it in our workshop, where we often work with wood, as inspiration to keep pushing the boundaries and not to balk at complex projects. Many heartfelt thanks to the artisan!

"Gorgeous!!!"
It is even more beautiful than in the online photo and in the catalog! The light to dark woods are combined beautifully and the amount of work to create this piece is awe-inspiring. Not only do I love it, but I took a photo and emailed it to about 10 people and showed it to half a dozen more today. EVERYONE agreed with me. It was my Christmas present to myself. My family room walls and shelves are showcases for items Ive bought during 50 years of travel as well as items from countries I havent yet visited. This is now my favorite piece of all.
