Wonderful - a mash-up of all the best things! Maple leaves, rankaku *and* abalone, and all together, you've created a marvellous patina that feels to me like a big drift of autumn leaves in a forest. The mixture is insanely wonderful.

I want it :-)

Never mind. I have a super flexy Swan snakeskin that I just restored, and that (plus looking at your photos for a few minutes longer) will have to do for today.

Thank you very much, I also like the combination
