Default Another Tie Clip - Inlay

This is another tie clip I am almost finished with. It is a special order for my husband's boss. He asked for one made of cherry, but commented that he loved the look of the wenge though he had nothing to wear it with. I decided to use the wenge end grain as an inlay into the cherry. The white is basswood. It will be delivered Monday so I'm nervous about whether he will like it or not.
