      Beautiful!
      This is the first I see in Syrian inlay work!

      Very impressive work ! I'll give you a hectare of land, 3 goats, 2 copper bracelets & my first wife for it.

      Beautiful inlay work Silver! As Kyra said, I've never seen Syrian inlay work either.

      Amazing that they can keep such a steady hand between air-strikes ! LOL ! Well, I'm impressed! Beautiful detailed work. OK ! I'll throw in another copper bracelet & my younger 2nd wife.

      Will, finally take mine to the restoration company - it's been collecting dust in the corner far too long...
