[QUOTE="kyratango, post: 1179909, member: 5006"]Thank you! Right! Can't say what is the grasshopper symbolism though:joyful: Ring, date, oat, initials, horn of plenty, ribbons and music instruments are more clear:) Maybe the ant is to impersonate the bride's wise sense of economy;) Thank you, but no bubbles nor gas porosity:rolleyes: Only texture on the background, heavy patina and signs of long time wearing with tiny dings and wear. Will try to get a super close up tomorrow with good light! Sure it is not a bloke in his shed work;) Thank you, the enlarged music notes is very useful to show the detailed work!:kiss: THANK YOU! I think you nailed it!:woot: High relief using lost wax technique and chiseling/engraving:happy: Have to agree too it is pretty special and pretty great:joyful: Bugs??? What bugs???:bucktooth:;):hilarious: Thank you, Kiko:kiss: Aww, Lucille, thanks for your kind comment!:kiss::happy:[/QUOTE]
