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!
