Great detail for such a small carving. I'd be curious to see that chess set with that East Indian part of the set.

Got some dockyards too but have not put them to use! Your carving has motivated me to give them a try!

Nice Carving! My Dockyards are my "go-to" tools for the fine facial features of all my carvings.
