Now the "burning" question is -- Will Tie.dye.cat revise his listing to include Terry's suggestion? :shame:
Oh my goodness, the Kumapart cuff buttons are beautiful. And the filigree piece is lovely. I'm like Bakersgma and wonder if/think that perhaps...
In the large vertical left-side of the container, what is that blue box (or whatever it is) with wording on top which seems to say something like...
