Thanks Ken!! I loved it from these pics, but to see it in person blew me away. The pics don't even do it justice. Thanks for all your help, including getting me to Mark L., an amazing collector and a true gentleman. Working with him was an absolute pleasure.

Ha! would love to post full set pic, but my cell phone camera doesn't do this beauty justice & we're still figuring out the new camera I got my wife for Christmas! Once I learn how to use it, I'll post a full set shot!
