When you've got it, you've got it! Great design!

Ah, this must be one of those things with gold inlay/overlay that is not ment to ever be used.
What a sweet hammer.

That is a "just right" piece of work, Barry. You couldn't add to it or subtract from it without messing it up.

Are you going to do the handle also?

That's a great presentation piece.

Really nice work Barry, very good design & excellent gold work. Is that overlaid or inlaid?

Simon.

Thank you my friends.
Simon, the leaves are overlay, the stems are inlay.

Barry,

I understand inlay. How do you do overlay? Different tools, too?

Mike, Just like inlay, but you don't dig a hole first.
